 A special bottle feeder originally developed for babies with nursing difficulties but now finding favour with 'Mums' as a viable alternative to regular feeding bottles where baby is reluctant to take feed from 'regular bottles' or where problems such as colic exist.
The
SpecialNeeds® Feeder (formerly Haberman) is particularly effective for children with
cleft lip/palate. A valve in the teat allows
the milk to flow slowly and evenly and prevents
the baby from swallowing air. Mum can easily
regulate milk quantity and flow due to the
unique design.
In
cases where babies have severe feeding problems,
such as with Down Syndrome, cleft lip/palate,
neurological dysfunction, sucking symptoms
and others, the
SpecialNeeds® Feeder offers an
alternative to spoons, enlarged and/or extra
holes in the nipple, and nasogastric tubes.
The
Medela SpecialNeeds® Feeder (formerly Haberman Feeder) is so effective and
easy to use that it can actually change
feeding sessions from a difficult or even
traumatic experience into a pleasurable
activity for the mother and baby. A specially
designed valve and teat adjust milk flow
to suit baby's needs.
-
A
one-way valve prevents flooding and overwhelming
the baby.
-
If
the baby cannot nurse at all, or just
needs a little help, the neck of the teat can be
squeezed to release a limited volume of
milk.
