Why is the AirFree vent better for my baby?

Published on 2021-10-26

The AirFree vent is specifically designed to reduce air ingestion during feeding. Find out how it works.

A nipple full of milk, not air

Our unique AirFree vent is designed to help your baby swallow less air as they drink, by drawing air away from the nipple. Reducing the amount of air your baby ingests can help with common feeding issues, such as colic, reflux and gas.

A natural, upright feeding position

A filled nipple together with the bottle’s anti-vacuum valve, allows you to feed your baby in a natural upright position while holding the bottle horizontally (see image below). Upright feeding is recommended as a first step to help reduce reflux since the position of the mouth is placed above the stomach. This allows the milk to flow in a straight path through the digestive system and aid digestion, and make feeding time more comfortable for you and your little one.

Enjoy a more comfortable feeding experience with the AirFree vent without interruptions like reflux, gas, colic or spit-ups.
