BABYCOMFY FOUNDERS ELISE AND PETER SAY: In order to avoid dehydration when our kids had the tummy bug and couldn’t keep anything down, we always kept a medicine syringe to be able to give them small amounts of water or electrolyte solution. The problem was that medicine syringes are too small – they don’t deliver quite enough fluid – and they have those sharp tips. BabyComfy Hydrator is the perfect size to prevent over-hydration and has a soft sippy cup type mouth piece.

Product Features

• BABYCOMFY FOUNDERS ELISE AND PETER SAY: To prevent dehydration when our kids had the tummy bug and couldn’t keep anything down, we always kept a medicine syringe around to give them small amounts of water or Pedialyte solution. The problem is that medicine syringes are too small – they don’t deliver quite enough fluid – and they have sharp tips. BabyComfy Hydrator is not only the perfect size to deliver limited amounts of fluid, but has a soft sippy cup type mouthpiece.
• COMBINES THE BEST FEATURES OF A SYRINGE AND A SIPPY CUP. Perfect 2 ounce volume is the amount that pediatricians recommend over 15 minutes to minimize risk of the child throwing up and getting further dehydrated. The soft sippy cup mouth tip is familiar and comforting to the child.
• HANDING A BOTTLE OR SIPPY CUP TO A CHILD THAT IS ILL AND LETHARGIC and expecting them drink JUST WON’T DO. It is necessary for mom or dad to actively administer fluids. Dehydration due to flu is one of the main causes for pediatric emergency room visits and not the flu itself!
• GREAT PRO TIP: Upon first use, put a spot of vegetable or food-grade mineral oil on the silicone gasket so the plunger slides smoothly and easily.
