nipple problem

Hello ladies . I'm 28 weeks &25 years old, I have problems  with my nipple, I couldn't breastfeed my 1st child that is 4 now back in the days when he was born I didn't know about shield or avent nipplet  or any other methods to stick out my nipple. Now I really look forward  to breastfeed well my nipple are not inverted but they  don't stick out properly it's like kinda half inside does any of you used / using shield or avent nipple what i could buy I don't want to buy a bunch of products that are useless. .. with my 1st child I've used an hand pump but that didn't help much ...

Evert - it is a product used to pull the nipple out before your baby feeds for an easier latch.   I've never used a breast shield because I've heard horrible things about the baby getting too used to them and then never latching on without it.
