My girl also has a hard time latching and these have made nursing possible, which is amazing. They are easy to clean and I love that they come with a little case to put them in. I bought an extra pack for night time feeds and in case we have to go anywhere and 2 may not be enough. My only problem with these is how easy it is for them to fall off. If my baby is rooting hard or feels it with her hand first, it comes straight off. It also leaks pretty bad around the edges, so if I don’t wedge a burp cloth between my breast and baby, we end up with milk all over us.
Ultimately though, this is what is keeping me able to breastfeed my baby, so it’s 100% worth it.
In case there are others like me that are sitting through the options and trying to figure out what to use, I thought I’d leave this comparison review on all four listings. I hope it helps!
So in order from best to worst nipple shields that we used:
1- MAM (5 stars) We use MAM bottles, and this is really an easy transition for the kiddo. It stays on remarkably well, which is very important when the baby likes to grab it! Only downside is the sizes available — 17mm and 23mm. I’m a solid size 20. We use the 17 and it works fine, just a bit snug for me and a bit more difficult to put on. But the most important thing to me is that my son latches easily and it stays put, so this is the clear winner for me!
2- Lansinoh (4 stars). The Lansinoh nipple shields are actually quite different from the other three we tried. They’re thicker for one, which does not feel great on the breast. I do love that they have a shallower nipple, so my nipple fills it almost entirely. My son latches very well to it, but because of the thicker base, it’s easier for him to pull off than the MAM shields (but does not fall off on its own like the Medela below). Still a great nipple shield that we continue to use!
3- Medela (3 stars) This was the first shield that we tried together, in the NICU at the recommendation of one of the nurses. It works fine for us. I do like the thinness of this nipple shield; it feels the most natural of the four shields that we used. There’s really only one reason it’s not our favorite: the nipple sticks really far out so my nipple only fills it less than halfway when we’re taking a breather. That means it’s very easy for my son to pull off, and sometimes it even just falls off. Having to reattach it is frustrating for both of us!
4- Purifyou (1 star) We bought this nipple shield at the same time as we got the MAM and Lansinoh ones so that we could try a few different brands. We couldn’t get it to stay put at all! Even though it’s supposedly the same size as the Medela and Lansinoh ones that we use successfully, it is way too big for my nipple and falls off constantly. My son had a harder time latching using this shield than he does without a shield.
While using this exclusively I didn’t experience any pain while nursing.
The nurses taught me to put the medela purelan lanolin cream around the underside so it won’t move as much.
My baby is now 3 months old and wanting to sometimes nurse without the shield. Now it hurts. Haha. But I have him use the shield when I can’t stand it. I’m still using the lanolin cream too but now on my nipples.
I plan on keeping this around as long as I’m nursing and I’m so thankful to the nurse who recommended it since my community hospital does not have a lactation specialist
