Nipple shields - how long do they last?

Hi

I am having to use nipple shields to feed LO as she has a high palate and cannot get my nipple far enough in!

I just want to know how long a shield lasts? We sterilise them in between each use but there is nothing to say when we should replace them.

Thanks

they are just like bottle teats really. You will see visually when they need replaced. From personal experience i found the Medela ones to be the best by far.

Used mine for 3-4 months & they were fine...in fact I still have them now 3 yr on & they don't look any different tbh..
