An infant feeding bottle assembly includes a container and a top assembly including a collar coupled to the container at a top portion of the container, a nipple, and a nipple protector. The collar further includes a holding portion. The nipple protector is coupled to the collar and is capable of transitioning between an open state and a closed state. In the closed state, the nipple protector covers and protects the nipple. In the open state, the nipple protector retracts into or rests on the holding portion and exposes the nipple.

Described herein are inserts for reducing sloshing in a bottle. The insert may be integrally formed in an outer shell of the bottle or removably insertable into the outer shell. The insert may include an elongate body extending between a first end opposite a second end; and an aperture defined by the elongate body and extending longitudinally through the elongate body between the first and second ends. The elongate body has an uncompressed state when removed from an outer shell and a compressed state when positioned in the outer shell. A diameter of the elongate body in the compressed state is less than or equal to a smallest diameter of the liquid retention compartment. The insert has a durometer between about 40 A and about 70 A. A volume of the insert is less than about 10% of a volume defined by the outer shell. The insert includes a compressible mesh material.

A locating system for finding a lost or misplaced baby bottle, sippy cup, or other children's drinkware. The locating system comprises a sleeve component configured to partially encapsulate the baby bottle or sippy cup. An alerting component is positional and securable within an external pouch in the sleeve component. The alerting component comprises a location indicator configured to emit a signal indicating a location of the baby bottle or sippy cup. The signal may be audible, visual, or vibratory. The alerting component is wirelessly activatable by a remote controller configured to select the desired signal and a volume of the signal.

An indicator system is provided for a milk container comprising a time display element with a time scale for indicating a freshness of milk. In one aspect, there are first and second indicator elements for indicating first and second selected portions of the time scale to signify when the milk container was filled and when the milk has reached a freshness threshold i.e. a particular storage time. In another aspect, there are first and second time scales on respective portions of the time display element, e.g. for fridge storage and for freezer storage, and an indicator element. A selected one of the first and second portions is in-use and the indicator element indicates a selected portion of the in-use first or second time scale.

A bottle system includes a first housing having a first sealable opening and a distal end, between which a second sealable opening is located, and a first storage chamber being defined between the first and second sealable openings of the first housing. The bottle also includes a second housing having a second storage chamber defined between a third sealable opening and a base, with the first housing and the second housing adapted to be rotatably coupled relative to each other in an end-to-end configuration between at least a first state, in which the first and second storage chambers are separated from each other, and a second state, in which the first and second storage chambers are coterminous. The bottle also includes a cutter such that, in use, the cutter pierces seals of the second and third sealable openings as the first and the second housings are rotatably actuated.

A monitoring system is provided for a feeding bottle, in particular a feeding bottle for feeding milk to a baby. Motion of the feeding bottle is sensed during feeding and a sucking performance is determined from the motion characteristics, in particular to identify whether the feeding is based on suckling or sucking.
