Medela Contact Nipple Shield, 20mm

I didn't use this on a thick door, but I repurposed the tail piece for my application. I had a double cylinder dead bolt and wanted to use Simplisafe's smart door lock. Well that is only compatible with single cylinder dead bolts. The problem being was my tail piece was way too short coming from the double cylinder. I didn't want to re-key my deadbolts so I swapped the smaller tail piece with this longer one. I did have to dremel cut it down to the correct size needed, but it's functioning perfect on my door. $13 was well worth it for an easy swap.

Works well, as long a you apply it per the instructions provided. I noticed afterwards that this is more expensive than Shoppers Drug Mart and it doesn't come with a case which would have been useful.

I built a soundproof room and door for my home theater and the door is 5" thick. I could not find a way to get the door to pull securely closed to seal because all of the doorknobs and deadbolts are not made for a door of that thickness. I wanted a digital deadbolt to keep the little ones out, but easy access for the adults. I saw this and bought this product along with the deadbolt just to see if I could combine the two and make it work. I was able to weld the two shafts from the kit and the deadbolt into one that would work in the deadbolt, but also be long enough to cover the door's thickness. Fortunately the screws were long enough as they are made to trim down to fit. The door lock works perfect. Now the room is secure and because the deadbolt allows the door to fully seal the soundproofing works so much better. I am positive this will work with other locks than it states if you are willing and able to make modifications to the pieces.

I used the kit on a Schlage smart lock, and it worked perfectly. Based on my review of several Schlage smart locks, it appears that the construction of Schlage (smart) locks are the same, and as such, the kit will likely work with whichever lock you purchase.The kit is very long and will work, even if the entire body of the lock is protruding out of the door structure. You will likely need to cut the kit down on one of the marked areas.

Mi salvación durante los primeros 6 meses de lactancia. Sigo lactando ya tiene un año mi bebé y se la quite a los 6 meses sin problema! A mi me ayudo a medir una consultora de lactancia y por eso la medida es perfecta no me lastimo y nadaLes recomiendo que se midan bien y aumenten dos mm más de su medida para que no batallen

I constructed garage carriage doors that I wanted thick enough to insulate. This kit made it possible to add a deadbolt.

sin estas pesoneras no me hubiera sido posible dar pecho

De las mejores que he comprado , la recomiendo. Plastico delgaditos, la medida está perfecta para el pezon, muy 😀

Lo compre para proteger el pezon en lo que se me curaba, pero resultó muy doloroso utilizarlo. recomiendo que si vas a comprar algo como esto, te asesores con alguien que ya tenga experiencia.

Useful product.... quality is also excellent....not available in local market....worth for money...

Es buena la calidad pero solo venía uno cuando normalmente te venden los dos, la verdad es que para el precio, si deberían de ser dos, solo por eso le doy 4 estrellas

This is what I look forEasy to work withVery good

Ordered this for my wife, who is pregnant. It arrived early which made both of us happy. It is exactly what she expected. She has tried it and it fits perfectly. This being our second child, she has used this type of shield before and it works great, so there is no doubt that this one will work just as great!

I love these nipple shields!!! I have flat nipples and my baby couldn't latch on. The nurses gave me a couple of these shields at the hospital and it was the only way the baby could nurse. As time went by, I'd occasionally try to give her a bare breast, but it was too frustrating for both of us, so I gave up. It's been 4 months now and we're still going strong with the shield. It has made breastfeeding possible for us! I'm so grateful these things exist. I've had no supply problems at all. I started pumping from the beginning, just to build up a stash for rainy days, and then had to go back to work soon so I've been pumping in addition to nursing all the way through. Maybe that has helped with my supply, but the shield doesn't seem to have hurt at all. I have gallons and gallons in the deep freezer. The baby has no problem latching and nursing now, no problems with let down or anything. I can't tell if she swallows more air with it… With a couple of good burps she's all set either way. A few points mentioned in other reviews:- Washing. Yes, you have to wash it between uses, which is why it's great to have several. I got 2 from the hospital and then bought 2 more. That will last me for a while into the day, and then I just wash all of them when I have a minute. Doesn't take long and I don't mind. Then I'm good for the rest of the day and night.- Easily lost. Yes, they're clear and delicate and hard to find if you drop them, but that hasn't been a problem for me. I've only dropped a shield maybe twice in 4 months, and that's because I threw it across the bed and missed... I keep them in a little tray basket on the night stand or by the nursing chair. When I'm done I just put it back on the tray, and grab another at the next feed. Then I batch-wash them all and put them all back in the tray. It really helps keep them in one place and helps keep them from falling or getting lost. Before I started putting them in the tray, they were rolling around all over the house - much easier to fall or get lost.- Detaching/sliding. This is my only point of frustration with the shield. If you have a wiggly baby who moves their face from side to side when feeding (for whatever idiotic reason), the shield can slide off target or detach. It's easily repositioned though, and most of the time it does stay on. I've gotten so used to adjusting it that it's really no big deal now. Given the amount of moving my baby does, I'm actually surprised the thing manages to stay on as well as it does! Also, it's easy to tell if it has shifted even without looking at it - by how your nipple feels. When it's on target and the baby is sucking, I can really feel the suction and the draw in my nipple. If I don't feel it, then the shield must have shifted, so I check it and readjust if necessary. I can do that in the dark. You really get used to it. You should be aware of its positioning one way or another though, whether by how it feels or by checking, because if it shifts, the baby would be sucking on air and won't get a good feed.- Leakage. Definitely put a burp cloth under your breast when nursing with the shield. The milk that collects in it can leak out if the shield comes unstuck or the baby falls asleep with their mouth open.- Contact vs. regular. I would definitely advise you to get the contact shield as opposed to the regular. I don't care so much if the baby's nose touches my skin (its advertising point) - I doubt she cares about my skin - but the actual benefit of it is that it gives the baby more room to breathe. With the full shield, the part that's under the baby's nose tends to come unstuck and flap itself back onto the baby's nose, blocking their breathing. I have one regular shield from the hospital and it's pretty frustrating to use. The baby can't breathe and throws her head back to get some air, yanking the nipple in the process. With the contact shield, that part is cut out so the baby's nose is unobstructed.UPDATE: 10 and a half months now and I'm still nursing only with the shields. The transition never worked for us, but whatever - the shields are making nursing possible! We've had no problems whatsoever - not with letdown, not with feeding, nothing at all. My boobs and the baby are doing great! She has teeth now and oh am I glad I have shields! :-)

My son was a preemie (born at 34 weeks) and had trouble latching on to my flat nipples. This nipple shield helped us get started with breastfeeding and was also a lifesaver when I came down with mastitis. I used this shield for three months. I kept trying to wean my son off the shield almost every day for those three months, and at three months we finally succeeded with a little help of lactation consultant :-) I reintroduced this shield for a brief episode of mastitis (which happened because I tried to cut down on pumping...) a bit later because breastfeeding was just too painful without it; my son didn't mind at all and I was a lot more comfortable until mastitis went away. Now he does fine with the shield, without the shield, and takes the bottle, and the pacifier with no nipple confusion or anything. I like this "contact" version a lot better than the regular "non-contact" shield. It conformed to my breasts better, stayed on better, and it was nice to have my son's nose against my breast during the feeding as opposed to a piece of plastic. This is a very nice product! I highly recommend it to anyone who needs it. If you are using this thing for months, like I did, I suggest storing it in your bra. That way you don't have to run around the house looking for it when you need it.
