The Medela Special Needs Feeder is a special-needs bottle feeder that features an extra-wide base to help reduce spillage, which makes it easier for the caregiver to control. The Medela Special Needs Feeder has a unique, extra-slow teat to encourage slower and more controlled sucking, and its specially designed teat shape allows for continuous feeding without having to remove the teat from the child’s mouth.

The Medela Special Needs Feeder is made from polypropylene, a plastic that is highly resistant to high temperatures, so it can be sterilized without damaging the product. The Medela Special Needs Feeder also comes in two sizes: small (2 oz) and large (10 oz).
The Medela Special Needs Feeder has received top reviews from parents who have used the bottle feeder with their special needs children, especially those with cerebral palsy.
The Medela special needs feeder is a unique bottle that allows caregivers to feed infants who are unable to suck effectively. The bottle features a two-piece design that allows caregivers to control the amount of milk or formula given to the baby, which prevents choking and makes the entire process much easier.

It’s important for young infants to get a good amount of breastmilk or formula so that their bodies can grow and develop properly. However, many babies don’t develop a proper sucking reflex, which makes it difficult for them to consume enough food on their own. In these situations, the caregiver has to feed the baby by hand, and this can be very time consuming and frustrating. The special needs feeder makes it easy for caregivers to feed their babies quickly, without having to worry about choking.
Medela’s Special Needs Feeder allows the user to feed themselves without assistance, because it can be used in a sitting or standing position. It also allows for a choice of liquids, including water, milk, and juices, to be fed through the tube.
It’s designed to make it easier to give a baby the caloric density they need through assisted feedings, without having to resort to more invasive methods like nasal tubes or IVs.
A feeding tube is an alternative to oral feeding for people with severe swallowing difficulties, or for those who need supplemental feeding. Medela offers a safe and efficient solution for the delivery of enteral nutrition to patients who are unable to feed themselves orally.

The Medela Special Needs Feeder consists of a clear plastic tube, with a collar that attaches to any standard size bottle so you can use your own bottles if you wish. It has a cap that holds the bottom end of the tube closed until you are ready to feed. To feed, simply push the cap down and pour your milk into the bottle. The baby then drinks by sucking on the tube, which releases drops of milk as they suck. It works very fast and leaves little or no mess to clean up after feeding.
The Medela Special Needs Feeder is ideal for premature babies, twins or triplets, those with congenital heart failure, those with cleft lip or palate, and those with Down syndrome or other developmental delays. Mothers can also save time by using it instead of having to prepare multiple bottles at once.
This product is particularly useful for individuals with cerebral palsy, developmental delays, or other conditions that make it difficult to eat safely. Individuals with these conditions often have trouble moving food from the mouth to the esophagus, which can lead to aspiration. Aspiration is when food or liquid gets into the lungs and can cause infections and other health problems. The Medela Special Needs Feeder can help eliminate this risk by making it possible for people to eat in a safe manner.
The Medela Special Needs Feeder comes with a clear bowl, cover, spoon, and straw. The bowl has sloping sides and holds 12 oz of food or liquid. It also includes a lid that covers the spoon-feeding port. This helps keep the spoon clean while not in use and prevents spills if the bowl is accidentally knocked over. With this model, users can choose between a curved or straight straw depending on their preference and needs.
The feeder can be used with both breast milk and formula. It features a transparent chamber so that you can see how much food your child has consumed. The feeder comes with 3 different-sized tubes, so that you can choose the one that most accurately fits your child’s needs. The feeder is made of medical-grade silicone and polypropylene, which are materials that are free of common allergens. You can sterilize the Medela Special Needs Feeder by boiling it for 5 minutes, or by putting it in the top rack of your dishwasher.
