As we all know, breastfeeding can require a bit of practice for most mums. Our Haakaa Silicone Nipple Shields are an effective tool for helping mum's who are having latch-on issues related to a premature or ill infant, flat or inverted nipples, tongue/lip tie, an overactive let-down or simply just getting used to the whole breastfeeding action.
Being ultra-thin, the soft silicone moulds to your breast also warming with your body proving a natural and comforting feel for both mum and baby.
Our Silicone Nipple Shields have an opening that's 18mm in diameter for your nipple.

This product is designed for mothers who are physically unable to breastfeed due to sore, cracked nipples, and should only be used in the interim before returning to natural breastfeeding once your nipple has healed. If you are able to breastfeed successfully and experience slight discomfort, we suggest using our traditional nipple shields as a protective alternative if your nipples become raw and sore.
