After surgery, many surgeons do not allow or suggest that baby go back to their cleft palate nurser right away. When your team says that sucking is not permitted for a period after surgery, the Soft Sipp post-operative bottle allows baby to stay hydrated and well-fed while protecting the surgery site.
cleftAdvocate's Rowan and mom Milli demonstrate

Soft Sipp is available from the Zip-N-Squeeze company.
