FAQs
Can I wear these while breastfeeding?
These shields are primarily intended for use between breastfeeding sessions to soothe and protect the skin.
How do I clean them?
Wash them with warm water and a mild, neutral soap. Rinse thoroughly and dry completely before placing them back on your skin.
Are they safe for my baby?
They are made of high-quality materials; however, always ensure the shields are clean and removed before nursing.
Can they help with heavy milk leakage?
Yes, they can be used effectively as a barrier to manage minor leakage, especially when paired with absorbent breast pads.
How long should I wear them each day?
You can wear them as needed between feedings throughout the day to maximize the soothing effect.
Troubleshooting
Shield is slipping out of place
Ensure you are using a supportive, well-fitted nursing bra to hold the shield firmly against the skin.
Skin irritation persists
Check that the shields are being cleaned thoroughly after every use and ensure the skin is allowed to breathe periodically.
Discoloration on the shield surface
This is a natural characteristic of silver. Clean gently with a mild solution to restore the finish; avoid abrasive cleaning agents.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To use the shields effectively, ensure your skin is clean and dry before placement. Position the shield directly over the nipple, allowing your bra to hold it firmly in place against the breast. For maintenance, clean the shields regularly with mild soap and warm water to remove any residual milk or skin oils, ensuring they are completely dry before reuse. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive scrubbers, as these can damage the surface of the silver. Because they are designed for direct skin contact, store them in a clean, dry container when not in use to prevent oxidation and maintain hygiene.
