Medela Contact™ Nipple Shields (2 pcs)

• Specially designed nipple shields for flat or inverted nipples, sore or cracked nipples and for pain relief when baby latches on.
• Gives protection against “teething toddlers”.
• Helps baby to establish the initial latch to the breast and prevents choking. 
• The unique cut-out section of the nipple shield enables baby to be in direct contact with mother’s skin.
• Helps mothers with latch on issues and also relieves pain on sore or cracked nipples when baby sucks.

• Wash your hands thoroughly with drinking-quality water and soap before touching the shield and the breast. 
• Dry your hands with a fresh towel or a single-use paper towel. 
• Clean the breast and surrounding area with a damp cloth; don’t use soap or alcohol which can dry the skin and cause cracked nipples. 
• Moisten the shield with water as this will help it to stick to the skin.
• Push the tip almost inside out and grip the wings of the shield (refer enclosed manual for pictorial representation). 
• Place the shield centrally over your nipple so that the open section should point in the direction of the baby’s nose during feeding.

Note: Before use, you can express some milk onto the tip of the shield so that baby can have a smooth introduction to the shield.

• If pain becomes severe after use, stop using it and consult your health care professional.
• If this product is torn or broken, please replace it regardless of the number of times it has been used.
• Please be careful not to pull it too hard and do not allow babies with teeth to chew on it, as it may tear. 
• Do not keep it near a fire. It may be deformed. 
• You may discontinue the usage of the nipple shield when your wounds and pains are healing or baby is able to latch onto breasts.
• Keep out of reach of children.
