I believe that Jan Riordans new book , just out recently, addresses this
well. Thanks

Subject: [LACTNET] Nipple shield for preterm infants
Dear wise women
I have searched the archives of Lactent for info concerning the use of
nipple shields for preterm infants.
The 2000 article from Human Lactation was quoted a few times, but that was a
trial study done 7 years ago on 34 babies. I am very interested in hearing
from IBCLC's that work in the NICU ..1. .do you have mothers breastfeeding
often without giving any bottles before hand? (once the infant seems
capable?) 2. do you use nipple shields when starting mothers on
breastfeeding? I would be most appreciative to get feedback in this
subject. You may write to me by way of the group or privately.
Close to the Heart
