Why are nipple shields so bad?

Well that's exactly it, FJ.

chocolatecatty, you've inspired me to try without the shield. I go through patches where I get inspired and try without it! Anyway it's going okay so far. I am still using the shield for the first feed of the day though. But I did quite a few feeds yesterday without it. Yay me!
