Shape promotes skin contact with your baby The ultra-thin butterfly shape of our nipple protectors is designed to provide skin contact for the baby. Thanks to its shape, not only the nose but also the chin touches the breast so the baby can smell his mother and can touch his mother’s skin. Just place the nipple guard over the center of your nipple to make sure your baby can properly grip the entire nipple. Enjoy attachment to your little one while protecting your nipples. Design to help with oral issues Our nipple protectors are designed to help you solve your baby’s early oral problems so you can breastfeed for longer *. For mothers with flat and inverted nipples and babies with poor sucking technique or abnormalities of the oral cavity, the nipple protector can help to design a nipple shape for proper oral posture, keeping it protruding during breaks during breastfeeding. For sensitive, sore or painful nipples Nipple protectors are designed to provide comfortable and gentle breastfeeding for sore, cracked or painful nipples. They reduce the rubbing and stretching effect on the nipples during breastfeeding, so you can comfortably feed your baby with the best of breast milk. Babies can only drink at their own pace If your mother’s milk intake needs to be regulated, or your baby doesn’t have a strong enough heart, a nipple protector is still a great help. The three holes at the top of the nipple guard help regulate the amount of breast flow if there is too much breast milk. Thus, the baby can drink at his own pace even if his mother is too active in milking. Designed to fit Nipple protectors are available in two sizes to better fit your breasts. Small nipple protectors are suitable for nipple diameters from 12 mm and medium-sized nipple protectors from 21 mm. To determine your size, place yourself in comfort and place one of the perforated rings on your nipple. Turn the nipple guard clockwise and insert your nipple into the drain. Then stretch the base of the nipple guard around the nipple. If there is a distance of 2 mm between the nipple and the silicone, this is the right fit. Tip: Size is based on the nipple, not the nipple. Not sure what the right size is? Get help from your doctor or nurse. Easy to clean in the hygienic case Nipple protectors should be cleaned before each use, which takes less than 10 minutes. Place them in hot water for five minutes or use the hygienic case as an alternative. Place both thoroughly rinsed nipple protectors in the case and pour 25 ml of water on them. Then place the nipple protectors for three minutes in a 750-1000 W microwave oven. Let them cool for five minutes. Finally, drain the water from them and they are ready to use. The comfortable and hygienic case can be used for cleaning at any time, as well as for storing and keeping nipple protectors clean.
