Discrete feeding with nipple shields

[Kate1985]

Any ideas? I love bfing Harry using shields as its the only way I can but its impossible in public. He as a habit of latching off for wind when shield is full of milk and knocks it off everywhere. Anyone fed publicly using shields? I've invested in a few ponchos xx

I'd be interested in this too. I feel house bound because the shields can be a faff x

I used to wear a belle belly (bump band thing to cover my belly), unclip, tuck a muslin into my bra to catch the leakage then get C to latch on. I always wear loose ish tops now to make BFing easy but you cannot see a thing xx

This might sound mad but can you not tape the shield to you using that tape small breasted women use.... Titti tape lmao! It might keep it in place a bit better? Sounds mad I know.....!

Which brand of shield are u using, the TT ones have holes more round the sides of the nipple so the dont fill up with milk the same. I used to have that prob with the avent ones which filled up loads.

On my iPhone - so cant see tickers

I use medela ones. Do u think tt would be better then?xx

I never tried the medulla ones personally, I just know that we didn't get filling with the TT ones, and I think the avent ones are a similar shape to medulla and I always got soaked with them. Xxx
