But this is a "thin LATEX shield" not the thin silicon shields currently in
use. So except for one pumping study (KGA) and one premie study (PM) I'm not
sure there is another valid study out there looking a milk reduction w/ a
silion shield. ????

Yes, I see your point Jan - before we can have confidence in this
intervention we really need research to substantiate its safety.  Pity the
companies that produce them don't have to go through the same trialling
that drugs do then we could really have confidence.  Wouldn't that be great
... then all those hopeless bottle nipples would be banned, and the pumps
that work against breastfeeding instead of for it!!
