We have a baby feeding from a Haberman feeder - baby has an extensive 
bilateral cleft of the hard and soft palate. Lots of trouble creating suction with 
the Haberman, and infant is taking 25-50ml at a time. This feeding problem is 
the only thing holding baby up from discharge. 

What have all of you found to be successful other than the Haberman? I was 
thinking of ordering a softfeeder from Medela, but I've never used it before. 
Has anyone used this successfully?
