Haakaa Silicone Feeding Tube Set

If you and your baby experience feeding issues  – including latching problems, low milk supply, or maybe little ones that need a little extra nourishment or help to learn how to feed – then the Silicone Feeding Tube Set could be of assistance to you. Also know as a Supplementary Nursing System (SNS). It helps you to overcome some of these common issues by connecting a bottle of supplemented milk to your breast via a tube, delivering a constant and controllable flow of milk to baby at the breast. Through the use of the Silicone Feeding Tube, both mother and baby can experience the natural physical sensation of breastfeeding, while encouraging mum’s supply and ensuring that baby receives adequate nutrition.

The flow of milk can be carefully controlled by using the flow controller for a more consistent rate. Our Silicone Feeding Tube works seamlessly with any baby bottle equipped with an X-shaped variable flow nipple (see caution tab). Simply place the bottle in an elevated position higher than the end of the outlet tube to start the flow of milk.

2. Insert one end of the thinner outlet tube into the smaller hole of the tube adaptor and the other end into the flow controller. 
3. Push the inlet tube down through the X-shaped opening on the Variable Flow Nipple and pull it through until it is long enough to reach the milk in the bottle. Attach the nipple to the bottle. 
4. Place the end of the outlet tube 1-2cm away from your nipple and secure its position with medical tape.
5. Place the bottle in an elevated position higher than the end of the outlet tube to start milk flow.
6. Introduce your baby to your nipple and then gently place the thin outlet tube into their mouth to begin feeding.
7. Use the flow controller to manage the milk flow speed, adjusting it to suit your child.
