Who are the contact Nipple Shields recommended for?
The Contact Nipple Shields are recommended for breastfeeding moms who experience latching issues. The Lansinoh® Contact Nipple Shield offers a short-term solution that allows moms to continue feeding at the breast while the underlying issue is resolved. All nipple shields should be used under the advisement of a breastfeeding professional. 

Where can the Lansinoh® Contact Nipple Shields be purchased?
The Contact Nipple Shields are currently available through a wide variety of online retailers including Amazon.com, Target.com, and Lansinoh.com.

Are the Contact Nipple Shields dishwasher safe?
No, the Contact Nipple Shields are NOT dishwasher safe. It is recommended to gently handwash them in hot soapy water after each use. 

Can the Lansinoh® Contact Nipple Shields be sanitized in boiling water?
Yes, the Contact Nipple Shields can be sanitized by boiling in water for five minutes. Please be sure that there is ample water in the pot, so that no parts of the nipple shield touch the bottom or the sides of the pot, as this could cause them to melt. 

Are Lansinoh® Contact Nipple Shields BPA-free?
Yes, the Contact Nipple Shields are BPA and BPS free. The shields are made of 100% silicone.

What is the best way to determine if the Lansinoh® Contact Nipple Shield is fitting properly?
It is best to have a consultation with a lactation professional prior to using a nipple shield. The consultant will be able to assess needs of mom and baby and make a recommendation for the proper size. Additionally, the lactation professional will be able to help address the underlying issue that requires the use of the nipple shield and advise on how to wean from using the shield.

Why is the Lansinoh® Contact Nipple Shield not completely round?
The cutout area on the top of the shield allows for maximum skin to skin contact with baby. Skin to skin contact is important for providing the sensory triggers mom’s body needs to let-down, and to maintain a good milk supply. Additionally, the skin to skin contact provides many benefits for baby such as regulating heart rhythms and body temperature. This is why it is recommended to only use the nipple shield until the underlying latching issue is addressed, and then weaning from the shield to feed directly at the breast.

My little one was struggling to latch, and these shields have been a game-changer for us. The ultra-thin, flexible silicone is so comfortable that I barely notice it's there. It came with a handy case for storage too.

These are so thin and soft they practically disappear once baby latches on, which made a huge difference for our latch issues. The included case keeps them clean and handy for nighttime feeds.
