Hi, I´m sure many of you could have good suggenstions for my questions.
The problem here in Mexico , at some hopitals, is that when babies are unable 
to latch, nurses give moms the (I´m not sure how its called in english)..the 
bottle nipples?, so  the baby latches, and gets milk! Although I don´t really 
know if its enough, since they don´t gasp enough breast tisse,but they pi and 
poop. We have , at some stores avents nipple shields but the complain is that 
babies  can´t seem to latch  and stores usually have standard sizes and the , 
little ones are hard to find. I found a store that has medela for like 11 dlls and 
some moms can´t afford them. My question is: medela shlieds, even though is 
the standard size, does it work better that avent ones? Also, do you know 
brands that work better? Are the ones with the cuts better that the round 
ones ? I´m new suggesting the shileds since stories have changed about the 
use of these, and some babies (few) just can´t latch when mom have 
inverted nipples. I´ve also notices that when babies have retrieving chinsthey 
acn´t latch. I read read about the position (upside down ) when the retieving 
chins but when they are too heavy and moms have a c-section its hard for 
them to try this one. I´ll appreciate any sugestions. Thanks,
