How to measure for and apply Dr. Brown’s Nipple Shield
Measuring your nipple shield
To measure your nipple size, simply use a ruler or measuring tape and measure the distance in centimeters, straight across the middle of your nipple at the base. Be careful NOT to include your areola. Add 4 mm to your measurement and that’s your final nipple size. Make sure to discuss sizing and shield needs with your lactation consultant before measuring.
