Not sure if my bottle came defective, but after the second use it stopped working, stopped dripping. I am home with newborn and won’t be able to return it plus it’s already been used.Think twice before you buy it, great concept, but doesn’t work.

The product does the job, helped a lot to quit bottles and get going with breastfeeding. Only issue is the white valve part which is very annoying. It is either blocking the milk or pour a lot, now using without that part. And be careful since it sometimes leaks.

My daughter does not take the bottle but I needed something for her to take my milk in (when I'm not around), the medela softfeeder has been a success so far. Easy to use, avoids nipple confusion and easy to clean. I definitely recommend it.

My 3 month old daughter has a posterior tongue tie and lip tie. She latches decently to the breast but cannot figure the bottle out. We've tried almost every bottle brand without success even preemie bottles. I've recently returned to work while my husband stays with her and she will go a full 8 hours without eating anything. We thought if she was hungry enough she would eventually eat but that has not been the case, she screams and pulls away from the bottle the only success we had was with a medicine syringe. I finally found this product and although expensive, decided to chance it. She took it right away and downed 4 oz. The instructions were easy to follow and I had no issues with it leaking. It takes a bit to figure out the right technique to use it, some milk does dribble when she's lapping. It's essentially like feeding a baby from a giant silicone spoon so I anticipated it to be somewhat messy. The mouth piece is very soft and flexible, more so than most baby bottles. I found that sitting her upright facing me in a bumbo-type seat and using a large burp cloth to drape over her with my hand holding her arms down was the best technique. Making sure to feed her while she is calm and not starving makes a big difference. I push the mouth piece down on her lower lip under her tongue and she laps the milk, she has gotten so good at it she now can slurp from it. I would really recommend giving this product a try if your struggling with bottle feeding.

This is the ONLY device my 3 month old daughter will drink from. She does not have cleft palette, nor a hard time nursing, but I was desperate for SOMETHING/ANYTHING else to feed her with for sunday school or for a sitter. My daughter will not suck on a pacifier either, so normal bottles just won't do! The only thing she sucks on besides me is her folded finger, so I thought the wider "spout" on this feeder may feel more comfortable in her mouth. Well, it did and she happily drinks from it now. The only cons are the price and that it's kind of messy the first few uses, until baby gets a hang of swallowing without spitting it out haha.You can look up videos on YouTube to see how to use this product, but basically you just place the spoon side into baby's mouth and squeeze the middle of the rubbery end which squirts a little milk into the spoon and then baby slurps it up. Then you just keep squeezing. It is very simple to use once you and baby get the hang of it.And yes, you can use the top of this bottle with any other Medela bottles which is great because this one only holds 2-3 ounces.

This is a great device. My son took bottles from 3 weeks to 10 and then flat out refused. I went back to work after 12 weeks and we thought surely he would take one once he got hungry enough, but it was as if he forgot how. We tried 9 different ones and he just wouldn't latch on to them. He played with them in his mouth and chewed on the nipple. This was the only device that got milk in him while we tried to encourage him to take a bottle. The bottle is certainly preferable, but this saved our sanity. We continued to offer the bottle first for each feeding and then switched to this. Eventually he took the bottle. I was so glad to have found this in the interim. Aden and Anais burpy bibs are also perfect to use with it. They snap around the baby's neck and are very soft while also being large enough to handle any spills while you get used to how this works. Very convenient that it is compatible with the medela bottles I pump into, as well.

This is an amazing product. Like others who have posted reviews, our baby refused every different bottle that we offerred. He would scream and generally refuse to eat from all of them. On one of the worst days, he refused to eat for about 7.5 hours while mom was at work. Out of desperation, we tried feeding him from a small baby spoon and it worked! He would laugh and giggle when eating from the spoon; however, he seemed to get frustrated that it was such as small amount and he wouldn't eat as much as he otherwise would. Then, we found this wonderful device and have used it successfully for 3 days now. He is eating much more than he did with the spoon. Also, our daycare provider says that it is easy to use. I agree, it is easy to use and easy to clean. If your baby likes the spoon- I would say it would be well worth your time and money to try the softfeeder!

This didn't work well for my 3 month old who is refusing a bottle. The mouthpiece was tiny, awkward, and slow going. However, I think it would be perfect for a newborn who chokes easily.Instead, the Ameda baby cups worked well for us - they are just the right size for a 3 month old and they are see through so you can see what's going on. The Doidy cup is too big and opaque.Another alternative is squirting the milk in her mouth from a Comotomo bottle. If I sit her back up against my thighs she'll accept this.
