A Soft silicone insert for smaller size nipples to use Breast Pump.

The standard size breastshield that comes with breast pumps is 24mm, though for some women with smaller nipples the 24mm standard is too big and causes pumping to be uncomfortable with too much areola being drawn in.  Having the right size breastshield (or using an insert to adapt a breastshield) can make pumping more comfortable and efficient.

We've been able to source this little insert which will help mothers with smaller size nipples.  This silicone insert can be used with Unimom breast pump flanges, to give you a smaller tunnel opening.  (Watch the Video Tab to see).

Available in 13mm, 14mm, 15mm, 16mm, 17mm, 19mm, 21mm and 24mm size.

*Note that the 13 - 17mm are made from a thinner clear silicone than the 19 - 24mm due to manufacturing requirements.

They are a thinner silicone product.

These are suitable for use with Breastmates, Unimom, Medela, Avent, Tommee Tippee, Spectra pumps.

They cannot be used in addition to a massage cushion.

Made from food grade silica gel.

Fits our Wearable Pump, Unimom, Medela, Avent, Mon Lait - and worth a try in other breast pumps too!

Note, these are sold as singles. Please choose the quantity and size required when you add to cart.

Pumping should not hurt.   For maximum comfort and pumping efficiency, find the correct breast shield sizes available to suit all women.  This guide below is a starting point, to help you determine your optimal shield size based on your nipple diameter.

Step One: This can be difficult, but use a ruler or measuring tape,  to get the diameter of your nipple at base (across the middle), do NOT include areola.  Measure in mm.  Please refer to diagram below.

Tip: Use a piece of string to go around the circumference of your nipple base.  Then measure this against a ruler.  Apply some maths : circumference divided by PIE (3.1417) will give you the diameter.

Measure-Nipple
Where to measure your nipple. Across the base. NOT the areola.

Step Two: Based on your diameter measurement, add 3-4mm to find the correct size, if your nipple size measures 17mm diameter, the recommended Breast Shield size is 21mm.
