we use these occassionally if nipples are really sore or to keep
baby orientated to the breast(some times with an lactation device inside)
They don't usually transfer much if the nipples are really large.

        Moms must keep expressing to keep up supply until baby's mouth
catches up to nipple size. We have coined the phrase "oral bobular
disproportion" to keep a difficult situation a bit light hearted
