When your newborn baby has difficulty drinking due to a medical cause, such as a congenital cleft lip or palate, this can bring a period of uncertainty and concern. Not being able to create a sufficient vacuum makes daily feeding moments a challenge for both parent and child. The Medela SpecialNeeds Feeder offers reassuring and reliable support in this regard. This device has been specifically developed to feed your child in a calm and controlled manner, so that the necessary nutrients can be absorbed stress-free.
Key benefits
- Specially designed for situations where creating a vacuum is not possible, so your baby can still drink efficiently and calmly.
- Easily adjustable milk flow that adapts effortlessly to the individual needs and pace of your child.
- Made of soft material that is extremely gentle on your baby's sensitive mouth.
- Flexible to use thanks to its suitability for two different teat sizes, matching your baby's growth.
How it works
The Medela SpecialNeeds Feeder has been developed based on in-depth knowledge of the natural sucking need and the anatomy of babies with specific feeding challenges. Unlike standard baby bottles, this feeder does not require a vacuum to start the milk flow. Due to the unique construction and soft material, the milk flow can be manually and accurately dosed by the parent. This offers maximum control during feeding and helps prevent choking, which contributes to a safe and comfortable feeding routine for the whole family.
