Lynnettes new Breastfeeding nipples are highly advanced, and are
very different from conventional bottles. Users will need to read these
instructions carefully for optimum performance and safety. Once you
are familiar with Breastfeeding simulator, you will find them easy to
use and free from leakage. Remember, all babies need lots of love, snuggling,
and close parental care! Flow rate:
holds up to 7 oz..
The Beastfeeding simulator comes to you with only 1 of 3 holes open
in the nipple. A slow flow is recommended to simulate Breastfeeding,
especially when switching between breast and bottle. If your baby seems
frustrated while feeding or is taking longer than 15-20 minutes per
feeding, you may want to increase flow rate, often at about 3 and 6
months of age. But like adults, each baby is different. Let your baby
try it before opening additional ducts, and be sure the open duct(s)
is clear. Once additional holes are opened, you cannot reverse the process.
To increase flow, turn the dome and nipple inside out and use nail clippers
to fully clip off a second or third nub cleanly at the base. If you
are in doubt about the amount of nourishment your baby is receiving,
please consult your pediatrician or other qualified medical professional.
Cleaning: Before first use, disassemble the simulator (5 parts) and
sterilize in rapidly boiling water for five minutes. Thereafter, wash
parts in warm, soapy water, rinsing fully, or place in the top rack
of a dishwasher. Silicone parts will last longer if hand washed. If
your water quality is questionable, or if your baby is prone to infection,
sterilization may be necessary for each use. Be sure to clean under
the air valve, inside the nipple, and around the nub inside the cap.
The dome can be turned inside-out, and the blue valve can be removed
for cleaning, then reinstalled. The Beastfeeding simulator also can
be autoclaved at plastic, not stainless steel, settings.
Filling: Assemble with clean hands. 1) Align the teeth and snap the
ring onto the cap. 2) Drop the silicone dome straight into the ring.
The dome must be fully seated in the ring. The nub inside the cap plugs
the nipple tip to prevent leakage. 3) Pour contents into the dome. 4)
Hold the cap and screw the cover on securely (clockwise). 5) Turn the
simulator upright to allow air to escape through the nipple. 6) Unsnap
the cap. (This is made easy by squeezing opposite sides of the cap and
pulling.) Don't agitate the contents more than necessary as air can
cause stomach pains and possibly colic in your baby. Lynnettes simulators
are designed to minimize air intake and will work extremely well to
keep air out of your baby's stomach if properly used. Storing milk:
Beastfeeding simulators can be used to store breastmilk or formula in
your refrigerator. Freezer storage is not recommended, as some leakage
may occur upon thawing. If necessary, freeze the closed container with
the cap on and the nipple facing down. Follow reliable guidelines for
breastmilk handling and storage refrigerate. Warming: Warm contents
separately in a pan, or by immersing the already filled simulator in
hot water away from the heat source. Microwave warming can harm breastmilk
and formula, particularly if overheated. If you must use a microwave,
remove the cover and warm the contents gradually. Stir when warm. Never
serve contents above body temperature - 98F! Feeding: If you are introducing
a bottle to your baby for the first time, or if your baby has refused
to accept other bottles, please visit our special page offering many
helpful hints for introducing a bottle. A good feeding position imitates
Breastfeeding. Cradle your baby in a semi-upright position and make
eye contact and comforting sounds. Leaving an infant to feed alone with
any bottle is unnatural, unsafe, and may result in tooth decay, ear
infections or even death from choking. The soft bottle is designed to
contact the baby's face for a comforting experience like natural Breastfeeding.
That is the major reason for the breast like design. Much like Breastfeeding,
Beastfeeding simulators require patience, and there is a learning curve
to easy practice. As contents are withdrawn, be sure to keep fluid in
the nipple. When the container is nearly empty, pinch the vacated space
in the dome to keep milk in the nipple tip and enable 100% use of the
contents. "Letdown" is imitated if the dome is squeezed firmly. Be very
careful not to overdo it as an infant can choke. Feeding should always
be supervised by a responsible adult. Important: Some possibility of
tearing exists with all artificial nipples. For your child's safety,
treat the domes with care. Check the dome regularly for tears, punctures
or cracks. Pull hard on the nipple to test it. If you suspect deterioration,
replace the dome immediately. Inspect the domes regularly, especially
if your baby is teething. Proper seal: If you experience leakage with
your Beastfeeding simulator, please: Be sure the blue air valve is centered
in it's housing. Be sure the dome is correctly installed, not inside-out.
Properly seat the dome flange in the ring. Before filling, the nipple
tip must be plugged with the nub inside the cap. Screw the base cover
on securely. Turn the bottle upright before removing the cap. Lynnettes
wishes you and your baby good health, happiness, comfort and convenience
using our products!
