Haakaa - Breastfeeding Nipple Shield (30mm)

Haakaa Breastfeeding Nipple Shield – Comfort and Convenience for Every Mum

The Haakaa Breastfeeding Nipple Shield is a world-first, innovative design made from 100% soft silicone to help mothers breastfeed comfortably, even in challenging situations. Whether you're dealing with cracked or inverted nipples, or your baby bites or pulls away, this shield ensures you can still enjoy a smooth and pain-free breastfeeding experience.

Available Features:

• Round or Triangle Base: Choose the round base for a larger size that offers easier suction, ideal for new mothers. The triangle base is smaller and allows for more skin-to-skin contact, perfect for experienced users.
• Two Teat Shapes:
  • The Orthodontic Teat mimics the shape of a mother’s nipple, encouraging natural sucking and making it easier for your baby to latch.
  • The Nipple Teat resembles a bottle teat, making it an excellent option for babies transitioning between breast and bottle feeding.
• Sizing:
  • The Orthodontic Shield has a 28mm diameter opening for the nipple.
  • The Bottle Shield has a 23mm diameter opening.

Product Features:

• Patented One-Piece Design: No joints or cracks to trap milk, ensuring ease of use and hygiene.
• Natural Sucking Rhythm: Helps babies who have difficulty latching to mimic a natural feeding motion.
• Suctions Onto All Breast Shapes: Easy to use for mums with any breast shape, offering a hands-free feeding experience.
• Anti-Slip Ridged Edge: The textured outer edge makes it easier to hold while feeding.
• Anti-Colic Features: Prevents gasping and choking by allowing a variable flow, so milk flows steadily without bubbles.
• Protection Against Biting: The shield’s design keeps a safe space between your nipple and the baby, helping avoid biting.
• BPA, PVC & Phthalate-Free: Safe for both mum and baby.

What’s Included:

• 1x Breastfeeding Nipple Shield
• 1x Protective case for hygienic storage

How to Use the Haakaa Breastfeeding Nipple Shield:

1. Prepare the Shield: Squeeze the chamber and fold back the base of the shield.
2. Position the Shield: Center the opening of the shield over your nipple and return the base to its original position.
3. Create Suction: Release your grip on the chamber to feel light suction.
4. Adjust: If needed, readjust for comfort until it fits properly.
5. Feed: Introduce your baby to the shield to start breastfeeding. Milk will flow into the extended teat, allowing continuous feeding.

Top Tip: Try expressing a few drops of breast milk into the shield before attaching it to your breast to make latch-on easier.

The Haakaa Breastfeeding Nipple Shield offers an easy, pain-free breastfeeding solution, enabling moms to nurture their babies with ease. Whether you're dealing with nipple discomfort or helping your baby transition to bottle feeding, this shield is a must-have for all breastfeeding mothers.

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.
