FAQs

The SNS supplies milk through soft silicone tubing while your baby feeds at the breast or chest. It supports sustained sucking, skin-to-skin contact and feeding without using a bottle or teat. Its on/off flow control helps manage milk flow during feeding.
How can the SNS support breastfeeding or chestfeeding?
By allowing supplementation during feeding at the breast or chest, the SNS increases opportunities for sucking and skin-to-skin contact. Sustained sucking can stimulate the breast and support milk supply, while helping babies practise sucking skills and create a vacuum.

Yes. The SNS is reusable and includes a specialty cleaning aid designed to help clean the silicone tube during repeated daily use.
What is the milk capacity of the Supplemental Nursing System?
The container has a capacity of 150 ml. It can be used for milk preparation, storage, transport and feeding.
How is the SNS secured during feeding?
The included clip fastens the device to a nursing bra, shirt or pillow. The container also has an anti-leak TwistLok lid to help prevent leakage and milk loss.
