The unique cut-out shape maximizes skin-to-skin contact between mother and baby, enhancing the bonding experience. Made from 100% ultra-thin, soft silicone, these shields are BPA-free for your peace of mind.
These shields enable nursing without interruption, addressing issues that might otherwise lead to stopping breastfeeding. Available in multiple sizes, consulting a lactation professional is recommended for proper usage, sizing, and to ensure optimal fit for your unique needs. The Medela brand ensures quality and safety for both mother and baby.
Imported directly from authorized US retailers, this Medela nipple shield offers an authentic solution for breastfeeding support. All customs duties and GST are included in the displayed price, with delivery via ExpressBox tracked shipping.

Medela's Expertise in Breastfeeding Support
Medela's Contact Nipple Shields are a trusted tool for mothers facing common breastfeeding challenges. Their unique design, featuring a cut-out for skin-to-skin contact, helps babies latch effectively onto flat or inverted nipples. Made from soft, BPA-free silicone, they ensure safety and comfort. While local brands offer general nipple protection, Medela's specialized approach, backed by decades of research, focuses on enabling continued breastfeeding and strengthening the mother-baby bond through difficult periods. This imported shield provides the same quality and support trusted by healthcare professionals in the US.
Ideal For Specific Latching Issues, Not For All
These shields are best for mothers experiencing latching difficulties, flat or inverted nipples, or overactive letdowns. They are designed as a temporary aid to help establish or continue breastfeeding. However, infants can become dependent on the shield's shape and suction mechanism, making weaning difficult. If your baby has no latching issues and is feeding well, it's advisable to avoid introducing nipple shields to prevent potential nipple confusion or altered latch mechanics. Consult a lactation professional to determine if this product is the right solution for your specific situation.
