Motherlove Nipple Cream

If latching hurts, this glides on smoothly for soothing relief and protection, and you do not need to wipe it off before the next feeding, which matters when you are nursing every couple hours.
Medela Contact Nipple Shield
4.413,716 ratings
If your baby is struggling to latch, or you have flat or inverted nipples, this shield is built to help you keep nursing instead of switching to a bottle. The cut-out shape still allows skin-to-skin contact, so you're not giving up the closeness breastfeeding brings.
