NUK Nipple Shields provide a pleasant breastfeeding experience for mother and child. Breastfeeding allows you and your baby to get to know each other particularly well and intensively and experience a feeling of security and closeness. However, sometimes breastfeeding is difficult due to irritated or inflamed nipples. It relieves sensitive nipples during breastfeeding and allows you to continue giving your little darling valuable breast milk and maintain an intensive bond with your child.
NUK Nipple Shield for nursing—the little breastfeeding aid made of extremely thin silicone. The special feature of the NUK Nipple Shields is their optimised shape, which allows more skin contact between you and your baby. 92% of mothers confirm that the baby's nose has sufficient space when using the NUK Nipple Shield. The baby can feel and smell its mother and the intense bond that develops during breastfeeding is not disturbed. The NUK breastfeeding shield's different surface structures and the four drinking openings are modelled on the mother's breast and thus enable a natural and calm drinking sensation.
NUK Nipple Shields, made of gossamer-thin silicone, relieve the sensitive nipples during breastfeeding and also help babies with weak suction to grip their mother's breasts better. For flat or inverted nipples, the NUK Nipple Shield can contribute to pleasant breastfeeding and a natural flow of water. Please also consult your midwife or breastfeeding advisor for good advice. The round radius allows the nipple shield to be used in any breastfeeding position and provides a secure hold. With the practical protective box, you can also store the NUK Breast Shield hygienically.*Tested by 95 mothers and 33 nurses in an independent clinical study in Germany in 2017.
Handling your baby requires a high level of hygiene at all times. After using the nipple shield for breastfeeding, it is best to clean it immediately. This can be done in the NUK Steam Sterilizer conveniently and easily within a few minutes and can be used with a gentle rinse aid such as NUK Baby Bottle Cleanser. Afterwards, it can dry in a hygienic environment. The supplied protective box is recommended for subsequent storage, please clean the storage box regularly.
