Flat or Inverted Nipples

 

💡 Some mothers have naturally flat or inverted nipples, which may make latching more challenging, but breastfeeding is still possible!

🔎 How to Identify Inverted Nipples?

  • Press around the areola—if the nipple does not protrude or retracts inward, it may be inverted.
  • Some women naturally have flat or inverted nipples, but this does not prevent successful breastfeeding.

📌 How to Help Your Baby Latch?
Gently pull the nipple out using your fingers or a breast pump before feeding.
✅ Try the football hold (clutch hold) position, which gives the baby better control.
✅ Be patient! With regular breastfeeding, the nipples may naturally become more prominent.
