if he is ok on one side without the shield then try tricking him into thinking he is feeding from his favourite side (using the football hold) as that can often break the pattern. Also try feeding him without the shield when he is tired (middle of the night feed) as he may be so sleepy not to notice. But yes, by all means contact a lactation consultant. Even if all they give you is some reassurance they are well worth it for a happy breastfeeding relationship with your baby.
