Starter Supplemental Nursing System with 80ml Bottle
Medela Starter Supplemental Nursing System with 80ml bottle. A disposable system ideal for short-term (24-hour) supplemental feedings at the breast. Quick Clip; attaches to mom's clothing for maximum convenience. Sterile packaging
With so many on offer these days, it is great to have a name you can trust. This item is certainly that and will be a perfect buy. The distributor have added some great touches and this equals great value.

I finally solved the leaking problem!
I am forever grateful to Medela for making this product which allowed me to supplement my baby at the breast and not using a bottle. But once my milk supply increased enough I was more than happy to jettison it because it was a pain in the rear to use -- breastfeeding is hard enough but it was that much more difficult for my baby to latch as his little mouth had to cover both my nipple and the tube. And the leaking was intolerable. I was supplementing at times with my own breast milk. Every drop of it was painstakingly pumped so you can imagine my heartbreak and fury to see it leak away! No matter how loosely or tightly I screwed on the top, it leaked... until I figured out a trick:

1. Engage the lock on the tube
2. Make sure the white valve is pushed all the way into the yellow disk. Sometimes, the "nub" is only partially inserted which causes leaking
3. Fill the tube with however much supplement (formula/breast milk) is required
4. Squeeze the reservoir tip...

crap
i did not realize it was intended to be a disposable product... apparently amazon doesn't carry any durable products. And here I thought they had everything...
The packaging says it can be used multiple times, but should be disposed of after 24 hours. Makes no sense but whatever... the fact is that after the first use I washed it out and it developed a pronounced and hard to find leak when I tried to use it. Frustrating. More so because it was full of my breastmilk, something I do not have enough of to waste. Total crap. Don't waste so much money on something that falls apart so quickly. Call La Leche League for better products.

My wife used the SNS and it seems to work pretty well. Thankfully, by God's grace, our baby has now started eating other things, too, so she hasn't used the SNS much. The tubing is small so when taped to the breast it works pretty well. My little one is nearly a year though, and was pretty savy to the fact that something was different. The tube does need to be on the top of his mouth, not the side, for him to get food from it. When she tried it first thing in the morning (when he had slept all night and was the hungriest) it seemed to work the best.
