Hello All!
Does anyone have any experience or feedback regarding the 28mm Mamivac nipple shields?  We have recently seen several mothers with very large nipples whose infants have had difficulty latching and we wondered about the effectiveness of this product.  Can the average-sized term newborn's oral cavity accommodate this size of nipple shield or is it better to encourage mom to pump until the baby grows?

Thanks again for any advice.  

Sincerely,

Amy
