No. The UMEE bottle can only work when its unique anti-colic vent system is installed properly.

The innovative vent sits on the bottle neck allowing air into the bottle and preventing a vacuum from building up inside it. Just like during breastfeeding a steady flow of milk is provided only when your baby suckles, thus minimizing the risk of colic symptoms.

Breastfeeding is the healthiest way to feed your baby. However, if you decide to feed your baby with a bottle you should make sure the bottle you use is as close as possible to breastfeeding.

All umee bottles have 3 unique advantages which bring them as close as possible to breastfeeding:

  1. Anti colic ventthat allows an easy flow of liquid while preventing teat collapse.
  2. Insulated add on covercreates a more natural feed by keeping the ideal temperature for longer while feeding.
  3. Specially designed nippleteat shape which helps to combine breast and bottle feeding, contributes to a more natural feel while feeding.

It has been proven in an extensive study carried out at Stanford University that it is healthier for babies to drink milk which has been maintained at the ideal temperature.
