inverted nips?

How do you know? I did the pinch test and they don't pop out more, but they don't shrink all the way in, just a smidge. WDYT?

    I think if they were truly inverted, you would know it.  Google 'inverted nipples" on google images and you will probably find a picture.  I was paranoid about this too and asked my ob to look at my nipples--she told me I'd be fine b/c a baby sucking on them has a way to bring them out like nothing else.  She was right.

    You might have flat nips

    I think if you do have inverted or flat nipples, you can still BF, but they recommend using a shield right?
