lactation consultant

Hi mummies, anyone lactation consultant you can recommend? Im having issue as ive been using nipple shield for more than a month since i gave birth as one of the nurses recommended it to me but im realizing that this should not be a permanent case as my baby is becoming fussy when he is having a hard time latching to suck the milk out of the nipple shield. Really need help asap to wean my baby in latching with nipple shield:(

I used to use nipple shield. After i pumped out milk, my nipple becomes bigger and baby was willing to latch. Will need more latching for baby to get used to.

I used it for 3 weeks. But was also expressed pump the milk and bottle feed. After almost 1 month, he could latch directly but he prefers using bottle. So i usually latch only when he is not so hungry
