Haakaa Breastfeeding Nipple Shield - Round

Frequently Asked Questions:

What's the difference between the Orthodontic and Round Nipple Shield?

The Orthodontic Nipple Shield was designed ideally for babies who have not been exposed to bottles.

The Round Nipple Shield is shaped like a bottle teat and is for babies who have been exposed or is transitioning to bottles or is transitioning back to breast from bottle

Can I use this if I have flat or inverted nipples?

You can but it is best if you consult a lactation consultant first.

For flat or inverted nipples, you should draw out the nipple instead using the Haakaa Nipple Corrector rather than use a shield.

Will this product cause nipple confusion?

Nipple confusion is a probability for any artificial nipples.

Is there a size?

No. There is only one standard size.

The Haakaa Breastfeeding Nipple Shield is a world-first design made of 100% soft silicone, with an extended teat that puts space between your nipple and your baby’s mouth. 
If your little one bites down, pulls away, or if you have cracked nipples, you will still be able to breastfeed with ease and comfort. Our Nipple Shields suction onto your breast, giving you a hands-free breastfeeding experience.
