ExpertDr Bandana JoshiAyurvedic Physician7 years agoA. Inverted nipples should be first examined by your gynecologist for proper advice. The management should begin during pregnancy and continue during early stages of breast feeding. Even nipple shield can be tried to feed the baby in the case of flat or inverted nipples.

Sneha PuruswaniMom of 2 children7 years agoA. Try to feed the baby directly as latching will help the inverted nipples to come outward so feed the baby well on both sides

Janani ViswanathanMom of 2 children7 years agoA. Now for inverted nipples you can try this method. Put ur thumbs on either sides of the nipple within the aerola. Give pressure gently, then pull away the thumbs from each other still pressing, then gently move the thumbs all around the nipple. Keep repeating this. This will help your nipples to protrude. Or u can use nipple shield with ur doctor's advice. Or u can pump from that side which will also help to protrude the nipples.
