Product details

Nipple shields are designed to help you breastfeed if you have problems with your nipples or when putting them on. The ultra-thin butterfly-shaped nipple protector provides breast contact for your baby
and helps you maintain the bond during breastfeeding. The ultra-thin butterfly-shaped nipple cap is designed for skin contact with your baby. Thanks to the shape, not only the nose is in contact with the breast, but also the chin, allowing the baby to sense the mother's scent and touch the mother's skin. Place the nipple protector over the centre of your nipple to ensure that you can place your baby correctly over the entire areola. Enjoy bonding with your baby while protecting your nipples. Philips has developed the nipple protectors to help babies with initial attachment difficulties and to help you prolong breastfeeding. For mothers with flat or inverted nipples and babies with weak sucking technique or oral malformations, the nipple protector can provide a nipple shape to put on and maintain the protruding position of the nipple even during breastfeeding breaks.

Nipple shields are specifically designed to provide comfort and smoother breastfeeding for sore, cracked or sore nipples. They can help reduce nipple friction and tension during breastfeeding, so you can comfortably give your baby your best milk. If the mother's milk flow needs to be controlled or the baby does not have enough strength, nipple shields are also a great support. The three holes at the top of the nipple cap can help you estimate the milk flow for the baby if there is too much milk. This allows the baby to drink at its own pace if the mother has excess milk. Breast caps are available in two sizes to fit your breast better. Small nipple shields fit babies with nipple diameters from 12 mm and up to 21 mm. To find your size, make yourself comfortable and place one of the rings over your nipple. Turn the nipple cap clockwise and insert your nipple into the tunnel. Use the base of the nipple cap to surround the areola. If the distance between the nipple and the silicone is 2 mm, it is correctly positioned. Tip: The sizes are based on the nipple, not the areola. You are not sure? If you have any questions, contact your pediatrician.

The nipple shields must be cleaned before each use. This process takes less than 10 minutes. Place the cones in boiling water for five minutes or use the hygiene box. Place both well rinsed breastcaps in the box and add 25 ml of water. Then place the nipple shields in a 750 to 1,000 W microwave for three minutes. Allow to cool for five minutes. Pour off the water and the nipple shields are ready for use again. Use this practical hygienic transport box for travelling or for dirt-free storage. The extra thin, soft silicone material of the Philips Avent Breast Cones supports infant feeding solutions and provides a seamless transition when combining breast and bottle feeding.
