Medela Calma Solitaire Teat

Calma – the unique breastmilk teat for your baby

For a mother looking for a solution to feed her child breastmilk, Calma is ideal. Calma was developed based on the results of our studies with the University of Western Australia. That’s why Calma is the unique teat for babies who are being breastfed with breastmilk, as it allows them to suck, swallow and breathe, as learned on the breast. Whether you breastfeed or use Calma, the baby has to create a vacuum for breastmilk to flow. As soon as the baby pauses, the flow is stopped, this is also the way with breastfeeding.

Why Calma?

• Our latest studies with researchers from the University of Western Australia show that creating a vacuum is essential to successfully breastfeed
• Babies learn very early on that they have to produce a vacuum for the breastmilk to flow
• Their natural way of sucking requires intensive work during breastfeeding

Standard teats accelerate an unnatural technique

• When you give your baby a bottle with pumped breastmilk and a standard teat, it learns a different technique as to when you breastfeed it
• The pumped breastmilk flows automatically and does not stop when the baby wants to pause or breathe. So the baby chokes more easily and can develop difficulties in its regular breathing Medela Calma breastmilk teat
