Medela 160 ml NaturalWave Bottle and Nipple 1A - Easy Transition from Breastfeeding

Product Description

Supporting your baby's natural feeding instinct and making the transition between breastfeeding and bottle feeding seamless, the Medela 160 ml Bottle and NaturalWave® Teat (1 A) offers a unique solution for parents and babies. Breastfeeding is a magical bond between mother and baby and a vital process for the baby's healthy development. However, sometimes bottle feeding may become unavoidable due to returning to work, travel, or other personal needs. This is where Medela's NaturalWave® technology comes in. This special bottle teat aims to minimize the risk of nipple confusion by maintaining your baby's natural sucking, swallowing, and breathing rhythm as if at the breast. Your baby's tongue undulates, and their jaw and mouth muscles maintain their natural movements. This not only makes feeding easier but also contributes to your baby's oral development. Adapting to your baby's unique feeding style, this teat ensures feeding sessions are more comfortable and less stressful for both the baby and the parent. Thanks to the advanced air control system, the baby swallows less air during feeding, which helps minimize gas and colic formation. The NaturalWave® teat allows your baby to manage the feeding process at their own pace and rhythm. This prevents your baby from getting confused when transitioning from breast to bottle and supports easy adoption of both feeding methods.The 160 ml capacity is ideal for newborns and smaller babies. This amount is generally sufficient to meet your baby's single feeding needs and can be safely used for both freshly expressed breast milk and formula milk. The bottle and teat are carefully manufactured from materials free from harmful chemicals like BPA (Bisphenol A), in compliance with the highest safety standards. This ensures you are providing the best for your baby's health, while also guaranteeing the product's durability and longevity. The transparent design makes it easy to track the amount of liquid in the bottle, so you can easily see how much your baby has fed. The wide-neck structure makes preparing the bottle, i.e., filling it with milk or formula, and cleaning it after each use, quite practical. The reduced number of parts makes assembly and disassembly easier, saving parents time. The bottle comes with a reliable and leak-proof cap system, which prevents worry about spills when carrying the bottle in your bag. Whether you're going out for a short trip or a longer journey, the Medela 160 ml bottle offers you peace of mind.The "1 A" marking on the NaturalWave® bottle teat generally represents a slow flow rate. This flow rate is designed specifically for newborns and breastfed babies as it is the closest to the flow rate at the breast. The slow flow prevents the baby from rushing during feeding, maintains the swallowing rhythm, and helps reduce the risk of gas or colic. As your baby grows and their feeding pace increases, you can easily switch to teats with different flow rates in the NaturalWave® range (e.g., medium or fast flow). This flexibility adapts to your baby's growth stages, making the Medela system ideal for long-term use and reducing the cost of extra equipment.Medela is a leading brand globally specialized in breast milk and breastfeeding, having earned the trust of parents.

Additional Information

This bottle set should be cleaned and sterilized regularly for maximum hygiene and lifespan. Wash the bottle and teat in warm soapy water before first use and after each use, and rinse thoroughly. For sterilization, you can use boiling water (at least 5 minutes) or a suitable steam/microwave sterilizer. Cleaning will be easier with a bottle cleaning brush. Carefully check the bottle teat for signs of tearing or damage before each feeding; replace the teat immediately if there is any deformation or wear. For your baby's safety, avoid heating the bottle in a microwave oven, as this can cause uneven heating of the milk and scald your baby's mouth. Do not leave the product in direct sunlight or near heat sources. The bottle and teat may contain small parts, so keep them out of reach of babies when not in use. This product may be compatible with various Medela breast pumps and storage solutions, but it is recommended to refer to the product manual or Medela's official website for compatibility. The product is designed in accordance with NaturalWave® feeding principles, especially for babies who are breastfeeding or transitioning between breastfeeding and bottle feeding.
