Q.

Hi. My baby is 27 days old. Due to flat nipple my baby was not able to directly latch from my breast, since day 4 i am using nipple shield and now he is habitual to it, I tried to stop using nipple shield still he don’t take feeds directly from breast. now my concern is how much time (like 30 mins or more ) does it take to one feed with nipple shield ?

A. there is no problem in using nipple shield while giving breastfeeding. it is important to maintain hygiene of the nipple shield with proper cleaning as well as sterilizationx. if the mother and the child is comfortable and the growth of the child is proper then you can continue to use it c
