Key Benefits:

• Provides a protective barrier over sore, cracked, or sensitive nipples, allowing more comfortable breastfeeding sessions.
• Helps reduce friction and pain during latching, supporting continued breastfeeding instead of early weaning.
• Promotes healing by shielding nipples from direct suction and rubbing while still enabling milk flow.
• Maintains close contact between baby and breast with a contoured design that supports natural positioning and bonding.
• Odorless, taste-free silicone helps baby accept the shield without rejecting the breast.
• Compatible with Avent breast pumps, allowing mothers to express milk without removing the protectors.
• Reusable, easy to clean, and comes as a pack of 2 for convenience and hygiene.
• Discreet and slim design fits comfortably inside a nursing bra or top during feeds.

How to Use:

• Step 1: Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water and dry them well before handling the nipple protectors.
• Step 2: Gently cleanse your nipples with warm water (avoid harsh soaps that may dry the skin), then pat dry with a clean, soft towel.
• Step 3: Inspect the Avent nipple protector to ensure there are no tears, cracks, or damage. Do not use if any defect is noticed.
• Step 4: Hold the protector with the open side facing your breast and the rounded shield side facing outward. Lightly squeeze the silicone to create a small dome.
• Step 5: Center the nipple into the tip of the protector and gently place it over the nipple, ensuring the nipple is fully drawn into the teat and the silicone sits flat against the areola.
• Step 6: Smooth the edges of the shield against your breast to create a secure, comfortable seal.
• Step 7: Position your baby for breastfeeding as usual, guiding them to latch onto the shield and breast together.
• Step 8: After feeding, remove the protector carefully, wash it with warm soapy water, rinse thoroughly, and allow it to air-dry completely before storage.

Suitable For:

• Age Range: For breastfeeding mothers of newborns and older babies.
• Skin Types: Suitable for all skin types, including sensitive, easily irritated, or damaged nipple skin.
• Use: Daily breastfeeding support, especially during periods of nipple soreness, cracking, or sensitivity; can also be used temporarily while nipples heal or when baby has difficulty latching directly.

Parent Tips:

• Use Avent Protectors For Sore Nipples as a temporary aid while you address the cause of nipple pain with a lactation consultant or healthcare professional.
• Ensure your baby still latches deeply onto the breast (not just the tip of the shield) to maintain effective milk transfer.
• Try to offer the breast without the shield once nipples begin to heal to encourage a direct latch when comfortable.
• Sterilize the protectors regularly (according to manufacturer instructions) by boiling or using a sterilizer to maintain hygiene.
• Carry the spare protector in a clean container in your diaper bag so you always have one ready when outside the home.
• If baby seems fussy or struggles to latch with the shield, try expressing a few drops of milk into the tip to encourage sucking.

Safety Information:

• Tested by pediatricians and designed specifically for breastfeeding mothers and babies (general Avent standard; specific study details not provided).
• For external use only on the breast; do not use on broken skin that shows signs of infection without medical advice.
• Avoid using if you or your baby show signs of allergy to silicone (redness, rash, swelling, or itching).
• Keep out of reach of children when not in use to prevent choking hazards.
• Do not use if the protector is damaged, torn, discolored, or sticky; replace immediately.
• If you experience persistent pain, bleeding, or signs of infection (such as warmth, pus, or fever), discontinue use and consult a healthcare professional or lactation consultant.
• Always clean and dry thoroughly after each use to reduce the risk of bacterial growth.
