I can't remember who it was who mentioned the "Breastbottle" a few days ago, but that was the first time I ever heard of it. I was certain that the author of that posting was actually referring to the Breast itself, in a humorous attemp to make all of us (who already know) realize that there is no substitute!  Only after reading todays posting I see that it actually does exist!!! The best use I could imagine for this item might be an option for encouraging the baby to latch on while squeezing drops of EBM on the breast. When using a bottle, it is hard to squeeze only the rubber teat, a syringe involves actually manipulating the two parts which is also difficult to do one handed. Same for dropper. Maybe you all have other ways of doing it that I haven't heard of yet, but this "soft, pliable bottle" may fit the bill, but I wish it were not so broad at the base and easier to handle.
