[quote=Anonymous]One more idea. With my preemie I had to use a nipple shield for the first few weeks. The lactation people hate them but it worked for us. My nipples are not that big and she seemed to have trouble keeping it in her mouth. The bipolar shield made it bigger and it was easier for her to grip onto it. I got the idea from another mom who had trouble and said it worked for her. It doesn’t work for everyone but does help some babies. The downside is that your nipples get less stimulation so it can impede milk production in some moms. I was pumping to supplement anyway so that wasn’t an issue for me. [/quote]
