A feeding device includes a fluid reservoir and a nipple configured to be attached to the fluid reservoir. The nipple includes a body portion defining a compartment configured to contain a liquid so as to mimic a feel of a mother's breast. The body portion comprises a nipple tip comprising a fluid outlet. The nipple includes a base member attached to the body portion, the base member including an attachment portion configured to attach the nipple to the fluid reservoir. The base member comprises a fluid inlet in fluid communication with the fluid reservoir. The nipple includes a fluid passageway extending through the compartment from the fluid inlet to the nipple tip, where the fluid passageway allows fluid to flow from the fluid reservoir to the fluid outlet. A valve member positioned on the base member adjusts a flow rate of fluid from the fluid reservoir into the fluid passageway.

Provided is a nursing bottle. The nursing bottle includes a bottle body and a bottle bottom. The bottle body is detachably connected to the bottle bottom. Both the bottle body and the bottle bottom are made of silica gel, and the bottle body has an arc shape imitating a woman's breast. An outer side of the bottle body is provided with a nipple. The nipple is provided with a water outlet. The bottle body is provided with a containing cavity and a first opening. A storage bin for storing liquid is provided in the containing cavity. The water outlet is in communication with the storage bin. A side of the storage bin facing towards the bottle bottom is provided with a second opening. Reinforcing ribs are provided between the cavity wall of the containing cavity and the outer periphery of the storage bin.

System comprising of a simulating flow control breastfeeding where a tube linking a refillable housing chamber to a prosthetic nipple, an analyzing module linked to a sensor to determine a physical, physiological, or emotional state of the infant/user by mapping the received input parameter with a pre-stored set of parameters from the parameter store via the analyzing module and dynamically interact with the infant/user based on a determined output to promote a non-latching simulating breastfeeding experience to prevent bruised, sore nipples or engorged breasts.

A flow controllable and variable stream physiological dispenser for nursing and related bottle, including a nursing bottle, or a sports container, having a cap holding a nursing bottle nipple, or a spout, upon its upper end, the bottle or container may have a singular or double venting structure provided therein, so as to prevent aeration of its contents and eliminate the need for sucking pressure to attain fluid flow from the container. The nipple or spout has various slits, of varying lengths, in order to regulate the quantity of flow of liquid from the bottle, and which nipple may be reinforced through internally formed ribs. Indicia is provided for indicating a fast, intermediate, or slow rate of flow of formula from the bottle, and various apertures, slits, crosscuts, tangential cuts, may be provided at the apex of the nipple or spout to provide a standard constant flow of fluid from the associated container, and which may be supplemented through the flow of formula through the associated radial slits provided through the upper reaches of the nursing bottle nipple or spout.

Described herein are improved infant feeding systems that mimic the texture and appearance of a mother's breast via improved curvature and asymmetrical contour placement to encourage latch and improved suckling of infants, as well as bottle nipples, pacifiers, medical dispensing tools and kits for same.

A system and method for fitting pacifiers and other implements to a particular child. One or more images of the child are used to determine anthropometric data that can be used to properly size a pacifier bulb and properly fit other implements.

Briefly, a feeding device embodying features of the present invention approximately conforms to the shape of a human breast and includes at least one housing for storing fluid coupled to a dispensing portion having an apertured dispensing tip for delivering the fluid to an infant.

A feeding-bottle cover includes a feeding-bottle cover body shaped like a cake or sphere, a heating component, and a controlling component. A nipple portion is provided on an upper surface of the feeding-bottle cover body. A feeding-bottle port is provided on a lower surface of the feeding-bottle cover body. A channel is provided between the feeding-bottle port and the nipple portion. The heating component and the controlling component are disposed inside the feeding-bottle cover body and electrically connected to each other. The heating component and the controlling component are electrically coupled to each other and disposed inside the feeding-bottle cover, and the heating component can be controlled by the controlling component to heat the feeding-bottle cover body so as to simulate a body temperature.

A hygienic oral pacification device includes a fluid-filled bladder. The bladder includes a nipple and alveolar ridge-mating flanges. The bladder is dynamically shaped and allows for pressures provided by the suckling child to re-shaping the bladder and flanges. A bite-block extends into the bladder to maintain a fluid path from nipple to flanges. As the child completes the suckling cycle, the bladder nipple is depressed and fluid is forced in the engorging flanges. The flanges thus cover the alveolar ridges and fill the vestibules. Hard pads set along a superior surface of the nipple are compressed against the maxilla palate and provide lateral force to encourage expansion of the palate. The nipple may be bifurcated into left and right opposing lobes which can split laterally to enhance lateral force on maxilla.
