EASY CUP
The alternative feeding method
The Easy Cup can be used by specialists and parents as an alternative feeding method to breastfeeding.
It is used for example for babies who have problems with sucking and latching-on in the first few days, or
for children with a cleft lip and palate and for weak, sick or prematurely-born children. As far as possible
breast milk is always administered. The baby will drink best if it is in a sprightly and inquisitive mood.
Caution: The risk of aspiration exists if the liquid is poured directly into the mouth of the
baby.
Application
1. Sit down in an upright position, comfortably and relaxed.
2. Fill the Easy Cup if possible, at least up to half-full. Put a cloth under the baby’s chin. Restless babies
can be wrapped up in a towel.
3. It is imperative to hold the baby in an upright sitting position on your lap, so that you and the baby
feel comfortable.
4. Place the lower rim of the Easy Cup gently against the lower lip of the baby. Do not exert any
pressure on the lower lip.
5. Tip the beaker so that the milk touches the baby’s lower lip. NEVER pour the milk directly into the
mouth.
6. If the baby takes a break in drinking, leave the Easy Cup touching the lower lip.
7. If feeding is finished, allow the baby to belch.
