The transition from breastfeeding to bottle feeding can be a challenge for many babies, as traditional bottle teats provide a constant flow of milk without the baby having to make any effort. This can lead to nipple-teat confusion, disrupting the natural breastfeeding routine. The Medela Calma Teat offers responsible support here by maintaining your baby's natural drinking behaviour, ensuring the transition is smooth and stress-free.

Key benefits

• Natural drinking rhythm: Your baby can drink, pause and breathe at their own natural pace, just like at the breast.
• Controlled milk flow: Thanks to the patented air vent system, milk only flows when the baby actively creates a vacuum.
• One size for the entire period: The milk flow automatically adapts to your baby's suction strength, making the teat suitable for all ages.
• Easy combination: Perfectly compatible with Medela breast pumps and bottles, providing extra convenience in your daily routine.

How it works

The Medela Calma teat was developed based on extensive scientific research into babies' sucking behaviour. Unlike conventional teats, where milk flows out by itself, the Calma teat requires the baby to actively work to build a vacuum. This trains the same facial muscles as breastfeeding, which helps to make combining breastfeeding and bottle feeding easier and for longer.
