    Calma is an innovative feeding solution designed for breastfed babies. It does not interfere with breastfeeding and lets your baby feed the way they learned at the breast, which makes switching from breast to Calma and back easy.

    The Medela Calma is designed exclusively as an alternative to breastfeeding for mums wishing to feed their babies with breast milk. It was developed in cooperation with breastfeeding experts from the Hartmann Human Lactation Research Group at the University of Western Australia. Calma allows your baby to suck, swallow and breathe just as they learned on the breast:

    • your baby can drink, pause and breathe in a natural rhythm, remaining calm and settled, just like on the breast
    • your baby needs to create a vacuum to start the milk flow, just like they do while breastfeeding
    • your baby can maintain their natural sucking behaviour, allowing an easy transition from breast to Calma and back to breast again

    Terrible bottle

    I was given some of these from a friend of mine who used them with her son and I absolutely hated them. Worst bottles ever. My son wasn’t able to suck much out, he got tired and… Read more

    Slim bottle with calma teat

    I love the slim design of this bottle. It made storage in the fridge and nappy bag easy as some wider bottles do not fit snuggly. This bottle is a great capacity for when your child is… Read more

    Both my babies have had no issues drinking from the calma teat from around 3wks of age. We were recommended it by a lactation consultant so as not to upset breast feeding and it seemed to work… Read more

    Community Questions

    A: Multiple nipple sizes are not required as the baby controls the flow of milk through vacuum. The baby will apply more or less vacuum to Calma as its need for milk changes throughout breastfeeding duration.
    A: Calma has been designed to be exclusively used with breast milk and as such we cannot attest to Calma being used with other food.
    A: Calma has been designed to be used with Medela's bottles and containers. We have not done testing on other manufacturer's containers. You may find that you can thread Calma onto other bottles but you may find that this combination may leak or cause other issues. We do not recommend using Calma with any other manufacturer containers.
