The Supplemental Nursing System (SNS) is a nursing device specifically designed to help mothers and parents to breastfeed / chestfeed by supplying milk to the baby while they are being fed at the breast / chest.
The Supplemental Nursing System (SNS) is a lactation aid that consists of a container filled with supplementary milk that is clipped securely to a bra strap, shirt or pillow. While the baby is latched at the breast / chest, a thin, flexible tube is placed alongside the nipple into the baby's mouth and a controlled and consistent flow of milk is released as they feed.
Helping you achieve your breastfeeding / chestfeeding goals by increasing the opportunity to feed at the breast/chest.
- Facilitates bonding and skin-to-skin contact.
- Promotes milk supply by stimulating the breast through sustained sucking.
- Supports non-lactating, adoptive, surrogate, same-sex, transgender, and non-binary parents to create a breastfeeding / chestfeeding experience.
- Supports the baby’s oral development of sucking skills to create vacuum.
- Provides milk supplementation without the use of bottles and teats
The SNS can also be used for:
- Inducing lactation
- Keeping special-needs babies at the breast
- Premature babies
- Weak, ineffective or lazy nursers
- Failure-to-thrive babies
- Impaired babies
- Low-milk supply mothers
- Relactating mothers
- A teaching tool to "fingerfed" babies who have difficulty latching onto the breast.
