Haakaa Nipple Shield
Pickup, delivery and shipping options will be displayed at checkout.
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.
Includes one shield and a protective case for storage.
NOTE: This is a very unique looking nipple shield.
There is an additional recommendation for mothers to express breastmilk into the nipple of this specific shield so it can be ready as soon as baby is brought to latch.
We at Nurtured recommend when using a nipple shield that it is under the recommendation of a lactation specialist (IBCLC or Lactation Educator) so that you can also continue to work toward latching baby without the use of a shield.
We do not recommend nipple shield for any mothers without feeding difficulties. This product is a solution for those who need assistance with latching perhaps due to baby's specific latch awaiting correction, or for those with flat, inverted or cracked nipples.
Features
- Patented one-piece design with no joints, cracks or edges.
- 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 easier for new moms to use and enjoy a hands-free breastfeeding experience.
- The anti-slip ridged outer edge make the nipple shield easier to hold while the baby is feeding.
- Anti-colic and variable flow nipple allows baby to drink continuously without gasping for air or drinking bubbles and prevents them from choking if milk flows too fast.
- Space between mum’s nipple and the nipple shield head prevents baby from biting the nipple.
- BPA, PVC and phthalate-free.
