Unique Butterfly ShapeThe ultra-thin butterfly shape is designed for skin-to-skin contact with baby. Thanks to the shape both baby’s nose and chin are in contact with the breast allowing baby to smell mum’s scent and touch mum’s skin. Just position the shield over the centre of your nipple to make sure your baby can properly latch on the entire areola. Enjoy bonding with your little one while protecting your nipples. |
Protects Nipples While FeedingPhilips Avent Nipple Shields are designed to provide comfort and gentler feedings for sore, cracked or painful nipples. They can help reduce rubbing and stretching of nipples during breastfeeding so you can feed baby your best milk in comfort. |
Designed to Support Latch-onThe shields are also designed to help babies with early latch on challenges and help you breastfeed longer*. For mothers with flat and inverted nipples and babies with weak sucking technique or oral anomalies, the Nipple Shield can provide a nipple shape for latch on, keeping and maintaining a protruded position during baby’s feeding pauses. |

Combining Breast and Bottle FeedingThe ultra-thin, soft silicone material of the Philips Avent Nipple Shield is closer to our infant feeding solutions to help seamless transition between breast and bottle feeding when combining both. |
Feed at Baby’s PaceIf mum’s milk flow needs controlling or baby lacks strength, these nipple shields are also a great support. The three holes in the tip of the shield can help rate the breastmilk flow for baby in case there is an oversupply of milk. This way baby can drink at his own pace in case mum is experiencing an overactive let down. |
Easy to Clean AnytimeIt takes less than 10 minutes to clean the nipple shields before each use. Either place them in boiled water for five minutes or use the hygiene case. If using the hygiene case place both well-rinsed nipple shields in the case and add 25ml/0.9 fl.oz. water. Then place the nipple shields in a 750-1,000W microwave for three minutes. Once letting them cool for five minutes and draining the water away, they’re ready for use. Use the convenient hygienic carrying case on-the-go, to store your nipple shields and to keep them clean. |
