It's designed for feeding needs often seen with cleft lip and palate, ankyloglossia (tongue-tie), high-arched palate, oro-neuromotor dysfunction, common or rare syndromic sequences and craniofacial anomalies, where an ordinary bottle and teat may not be the right fit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe valve is inserted into any level Dr. Brown's standard silicone nipple to create a \"compression\" nipple. This allows an infant to express a bolus of milk through lingual (tongue) movements during sucking attempts, without a caregiver needing to manually squeeze the bolus into baby's mouth. Used together with the Dr. Brown's Natural Flow bottle system, it's designed to assist the infant in self-regulating during oral feedings. This 120 ml retail pack arrives with a Level 1 nipple and a spare valve, so you have a backup on hand.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow it works\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompression nipple:\u003c\/strong\u003e The Infant-Paced Feeding Valve fits into a Dr. Brown's standard silicone nipple to create a compression nipple, so baby draws milk through their own tongue movements rather than relying on a caregiver to squeeze.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMore typical bolus placement:\u003c\/strong\u003e Milk is placed more typically during feeding, rather than being manually expressed into the oropharynx.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConsistent flow:\u003c\/strong\u003e The valve is designed to give a consistent and reliable nipple flow rate through the feed.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNon-squeeze method:\u003c\/strong\u003e Because it doesn't rely on squeezing, it's designed to help decrease gassiness, air intake and burping.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNatural Flow vent qualities:\u003c\/strong\u003e It carries the vented design of the Dr. Brown's Natural Flow bottle, which the brand associates with assisting digestion and helping preserve vitamins A, C and E.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSimple to assemble, clean and reuse\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe system requires minimal assembly, which is intended to help parents and caregivers feel confident and competent setting it up.
