Apologies if this has already been asked.
Just want to know if anyones used these and there opinions. Im 30wks now and cannot decide upon bf or ff. My son never latched and as first time mum i exclusively expressed till he was 6 months by which time i had enough and had him fully weanes by 9m. With dd my milk never came in and inwas sporting humungous boulders of pain that were just dry and achey amd urghh... she cried and cried and cried amd happily just accepted ff. Both ended up on ff with no probs.
Now im due to be induced in approx 7wks. I have no idea if i want to bf or ff. I have alsorts of mish going through my head. For starter...i didnt even realise that any sich thing as a nipple sheild existed.naive me but seens as its been 10yrs sincei last tried bf, dd is now 10, i do t know what to expect.
So... are they comfy
do they make you sore
can they help with latching
theres a couple of diff styles,which one is best recommended
and basically any other info you can give me. Knowing theres something out there that could also help with sore cracked nips will help in my decision.
Sorry for waffling...im soooo confused about it. Thankyou for reading x
