Key Benefits & Features

  • 5 Fr Size for Gentle Flow: The 5 French tubing size provides a controlled, slow supplemental feed suitable for direct breastfeeding or paced bottle feeding.

  • Support for Breastfeeding Success: Helps babies stay at the breast while receiving extra nutrition, encouraging natural suck-swallow patterns and improving breastfeeding confidence.

  • Ideal for Lactation Challenges: Useful for parents managing low milk supply, poor latch, slow weight gain, tongue/lip tie support, or transitioning from tube to full breastfeeds.

  • Flexible & Comfortable Tube: Soft, thin tube designed to rest comfortably alongside the nipple during feeding without distracting baby.

  • Easy to Use with Syringe or Supplemental System: Compatible with syringes or supplemental nursing systems (SNS), making it versatile for different feeding strategies.

How to Use

LactTube 5 Fr can be threaded along the breast or pacifier while your baby nurses, allowing supplemental milk to flow in sync with natural milk letdown and suck patterns. Many parents use it with a syringe, bottle, or supplemental nursing system reservoir to deliver a controlled supplemental flow while maintaining skin-to-skin contact and breastfeeding cues.

This tool supports a more natural feeding rhythm and encourages sustained breastfeeding even when additional calories are needed.

Who This Is For

  • Breastfeeding parents needing supplemental feeding support

  • Babies with latch challenges, slow weight gain, or feeding fatigue

  • Those using supplemental nursing systems (SNS)

  • Parents working with lactation consultants to improve transfer and output

  • Anyone wanting to maintain breastfeeding while providing extra nutrition
