| I'm new to this site and was wondering if anyone has used nipple shields when feeding their baby. My baby, Emily, is 11 weeks only and has been using the shield since birth but has now decided to fight (crying and scream) when trying to latch on. Once she is on she is fine but to get her to feed is a mission. If anyone has experienced this their thoughts would be much appreciated |

| I haven't... but I suggest contacting La Leche League and talking to them about it. Make sure you get a nice one tho... some of them freak me out. |

| Have you tried not using them? Jack just gave up on them one day. I was so scared to stop using them but it wasn't bad at all. Hope your bubs starts latching on 4 ya |
