In this episode Katie takes Rachel into a conversation about why the nipple shield topic gets Katie’s knickers in a Twist.
We discuss:
- The history of their use from1500s to present day
- How the research might not be telling the right story?
- Why are they so controversial?
- We ask do nipple shields affect how much milk the baby can take out of the breast?
- When might be a good reason to use a nipple shield – way more reasons than you probably think!
- How do you get the right fit, and who are we fitting the shield for, the baby’s mouth or the mum’s nip?
- Do babies attach differently when they use one?
- And we discuss how to wean off from using a nipple shield.
All this and tons more packed in to one episode for your eager lug’ols.
