Medela SpecialNeeds Feeder Plastic Bottle 150ml (5.07fl oz) provides controlled and safe feeding for babies with sucking difficulties. In this way, the baby's caregiver is able to control the flow of food the baby takes in while the baby is comfortable and efficiently fed.

Product Description

Medela SpecialNeeds Feeder Plastic Bottle 150ml (5.07fl oz) provides a great help when it comes to feeding babies in special cases. In this sense, this bottle and teat are specially designed for babies with difficulty in sucking due to the fact that they cannot create a vacuum with their mouths. Thus, we refer to babies with certain syndromes and neurological disorders, or with cleft lip and palate. That said, this teat provides a regulated and controlled flow of milk that perfectly adjusts to the newborn's abilities and efforts. This, in turn, is sensitive to even the smallest suction effort. In this sense, when the baby wants to stop eating, its valve closes so that the baby is as comfortable as possible. As an extra safety measure, this unilateral valve also prevents air from entering the teat in order to avoid harmful air pockets for the baby. In turn, it is this valve that also allows the baby's caregiver to regulate the amount of food flow the baby can ingest. In this way, all you have to do is turn the bottle to one side or the other to regulate the flow of milk that the baby can ingest. Thus, safe and controlled feeding is always guaranteed.
