Research

“Newborn babies need to feed 8-12 times in 24 hours.”

—USDA

User

Sometimes, young fathers must take care of the babe independently.

What They Do?

When the mother is not available, the father uses pre-collect breast milk.

Heating them with a stational heater from the fridge.

What They Need?

There is the time when the father brings the baby out along

They will still need to feed the baby with the hot milk.

What if there is a portable heating bottle with simple control so young fathers can use it while they bring the babe out?
