SoftFeeder
M
edela supports breastfeeding as the best method of
nutrition for infants. When a healthcare professional
determines that the baby cannot currently be fed at the
breast, the Medela SoftFeeder is an ideal alternative. The
Medela SoftFeeder allows the baby to be fed without
developing nipple confusion/preference until the transition
to breastfeeding can be made. If the use of an electric
breastpump to express milk is indicated, call
1-800-TELL YOU or go to www.medela.com for the
name and phone number of a Medela Rental Station
or for the name of a Breastfeeding Specialist.
