Haberman & Mini-Haberman (SpecialNeeds) Feeders

Invented by a mother of a child with a cleft palate, these unique feeders are suitable for children with oral/facial abnormalities and children with feeding and sucking problems. Special design features make them uniquely responsive to the baby's nursing efforts. The slit-valve in the nipple regulates milk flow from zero to maximum, depending on its orientation in the baby's mouth. This one-way valve prevents flooding or overwhelming the baby. The reservoir always remains full, so none of the baby's effort is wasted. If the baby needs a little help nursing, you can squeeze the reservoir and release a small amount of milk into the baby's mouth. The Haberman Feeder is not suitable for babies with swallowing difficulties. The Haberman and Mini-Haberman nipples are interchangeable and can be used with either size bottle.

Soft Feeder

The Soft Feeder can be used whenever cup feeding is recommended for full-term and premature babies with feeding difficulties, or for breastfed babies for whom nipple confusion/preference is a concern. The Soft Feeder has a unique valve and self-filling reservoir system that provides more feeding control than traditional cups by maintaining the right amount of milk at the lip of the Feeder. The slightest feeding effort is rewarded, without flooding the baby. The Soft Feeder is made of soft, pliable pure silicone and it is easy to fill and clean.
