This product is designed for mothers who are physically unable to breastfeed due to sore or cracked nipples and should only be used in the interim while you heal. 

 

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 sore, inverted or 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. 

 

Available in a round or butterfly base, the Haakaa Breastfeeding Nipple Shield allows all mums to experience the beauty of breastfeeding without the worry of discomfort and pain! 

 

This product includes 1 x Breastfeeding Nipple Shield + 1 x Storage Case. 

 

Features: 

• One-piece design with no joints, cracks or edges for bacteria to harbour. 

• Nipple design allows babies to mimic a natural sucking rhythm, making it easier for babies that have difficulty latching. 

• Suctions on to all breast shapes, making it easy for new mums to use. 

• The anti-slip ridged outer edge makes the nipple shield easier to hold while the baby is feeding.

• Anti-colic and variable flow teat allows your baby to drink continuously without drinking bubbles and prevents them from choking if milk flows too fast. 

• Space between mum’s nipple and the nipple shield teat prevents baby from biting the nipple. 

• Dishwasher safe — can also be steam sterilised or left to sit in boiling water. 

• BPA, PVC and phthalate-free. 

 

How to use: 

Tip: Expressing a few drops of breast milk into the shield before attaching may promote an easier latch. 

1. Squeeze the chamber and fold back the base of the shield. 

2. Centre the opening over your nipple, press it to your breast and fold the base back to its original position. 

3. Release your grip on the chamber — you should feel a light suction. (If the shield is not perfectly in place, re-adjust until it is comfortable.) 

4. Introduce your baby to the shield and start feeding. Your breast milk will continue to flow to the extended teat.
