While there is no worry with respect to the use of a nipple shield and milk supply, it is true that your baby may not be able to latch on properly, which can lower the amount of milk your baby consumes. Try to shift to direct breastfeeding as soon as possible to retain physical contact with the baby. Nipple shields are a short-term solution and shouldn’t be used for too long unless it is absolutely necessary.
