The soft, food-grade silicone is designed for comfort and effective latch support, making it a superior choice for mothers seeking advanced, reliable breastfeeding support. **Ideal for New Mothers, Skip if...** — This shield is ideal for new mothers seeking reassurance, experiencing sore nipples, or dealing with latch difficulties, flat, or inverted nipples. It's particularly beneficial for understanding milk transfer during sleepy feeds or transitions. Skip if you require a shield with a more rigid structure, as this one prioritizes flexibility and comfort for skin-to-skin contact. For those needing a simpler, non-visual shield, basic silicone options might suffice, but they won't offer the same level of feeding insight. ## How to use 1.
