LC recommended nipple shields now he won’t feed without them

Edit: thank you everyone for the encouraging comments! I think I just felt a lot of pressure off the second LC I met with. I felt like she was looking down at me for using the shields even though she saw the state my nipples were in and kept reminding me they are only a temporary measure. I am not going back to her after next Tuesday as she’s connected to the tongue tie clinic and that’s when his follow up appointment is.

So my LO is 2 weeks old today and had a severe tongue and lip tie. One LC from the hospital recommended using nipple shields as my nipples were cracked and on their way to ulcers when he was only 5 days old due to his shallow latch, I wasn’t using them much as I found them to be quite annoying but I was in agony. We then went to the specialist who corrected his tongue and lip tie and they also had a LC. I showed them the nipple shields I was using and they advised me to use different ones, which I took their recommendation. The issue now is that he won’t take the boob without the shield at all now whereas he was taking it on the other shields. They told me to try take it off through the feed but that isn’t working, and that seems to be the only advice I am getting but he screams bloody murder now without it. I tried doing the same with the original shields but no luck. Has anyone got any other advice on how I can get him off it?
