A. Hello mom you have to check in between, keep on trying to do that because its a natural method of feeding and it’s known so at times feed with a shield and sometimes just remove it and try to see if the baby is able to do it

Q. I am breastfeeding through nip shield as baby was not able to latch directly due to flat nipples issue. He is one month old and I have been trying to wean him off nip shield but not able to. I try to quickly change from nip shield to direct breastfeed during the feed when he has fed for sometime and is half asleep. But he struggles to latch and gets fussy and starts crying.
