Medela Nipple formers are a non-invasive way to help women with inverted or flat nipples breastfeed comfortably and successfully.
The nipple formers are worn inside your bra and are comfortable and discreet to wear. You can start wearing them during pregnancy and in between feeds.
Medela Nipple Formers exert a gentle pressure upon the nipple to draw it out, making it easier for the baby to latch on correctly.
They have a soft silicone back for comfort and are vented to ensure a good air flow. They are contoured to reduce visibility through clothing.
Nipple formers should not be confused with nipple shields, which work to protect sore nipples.
If you are concerned about your ability to breastfeed due to flat or inverted nipples, nipple formers may help but are no substitute for advice from your midwife or breastfeeding counsellor.
Medela invest heavily in research and development to ensure that their breastfeeding products mimic a baby’s natural nursing rhythms giving a faster let down, more comfortable expressing and increased milk flow.
