The Infant Colostrum Feeding Cup from Fed is Best is a reusable, medical-style feeding cup designed for safely feeding colostrum to newborns without causing nipple confusion.

Safe, controlled colostrum feeding for newborns

The Infant Colostrum Feeding Cup, available from Fed is Best, is specifically designed for feeding newborn babies small amounts of colostrum during the early days after birth. It offers a gentle, controlled feeding method that supports breastfeeding without introducing artificial nipples or fast-flow systems.

In the first few days of life, babies may struggle to latch effectively. In some cases, they may require additional colostrum for medical reasons. This feeding cup allows caregivers to provide expressed colostrum safely, while protecting the breastfeeding relationship.

Supports breastfeeding without nipple confusion

One of the biggest concerns during early supplementation is nipple or flow confusion. Bottles can introduce a different sucking mechanism and faster milk flow, which may interfere with breastfeeding.

The Infant Colostrum Feeding Cup avoids this issue. Instead of sucking, babies lap the milk with their tongue at their own pace. This natural feeding motion supports breastfeeding development and reduces the risk of preference for artificial teats.

Designed for small volumes and slow flow

Colostrum is produced in small but powerful quantities. Therefore, feeding tools must allow careful control over every drop. This cup features a small mouth opening, which helps regulate milk flow and reduces spillage.

The slower flow allows babies to lap milk comfortably. As a result, it reduces the risk of choking and overwhelming fragile newborns. The design encourages safe, responsive feeding.

Gentle on delicate lips

Newborn skin is highly sensitive. The Infant Colostrum Feeding Cup features a smooth, rounded edge that prevents chafing or irritation around the lips.

Because the lip rests softly against baby’s mouth, feeding remains calm and comfortable even during repeated use in hospital or at home.

Reusable and easy to sterilise

Hygiene is critical when feeding newborns. This reusable feeding cup can be washed thoroughly and sterilised using standard sterilising methods. It supports boiling, steam sterilisation, and other common sterilising practices used for infant feeding equipment.

This makes it suitable for hospital settings, midwife support, and home use. Because it is reusable, it also offers a practical and economical solution during the early feeding stage.
