Machine to Prepare Baby Bottles Like Capsule Coffee Machines
- A machine has been developed to prepare baby bottles like capsule coffee machines.
- Other gadgets have been designed for breastfeeding.
- Anicet Mbida presents the latest innovations for young parents on “Bonjour! La matinale TF1”.
The crying baby in the middle of the night, parents trying to measure powdered milk with half-closed eyes, the spilled bottle… If this scene is familiar to many parents, it is for this situation that a machine has been developed: the bottle machine. The promise is very simple to summarize, as reported by Anicet Mbida on “Bonjour! La matinale TF1”: “making a bottle as simple as making a
coffee in a machine”
.
Specializing in new technologies, the journalist tests one of these machines on set, which is like a typical coffee machine – breast milk powder in a reservoir at the top of the machine, water in a second reservoir at the back, and a few buttons to control the desired amount of milk. Although the machine on set does not work (due to calibration issues, according to Anicet Mbida), it is supposed to enable parents to make bottles “with one hand”
for a high price: 250 euros.
Innovations for Breastfeeding
Bottle machines are not the only innovations developed for young parents, the journalist continues. He presents an object on set, smaller, designed for mothers who breastfeed their baby: a connected breast pump. This device works with a mobile phone and allows mothers who express milk to do so at work or during other activities while keeping their hands free. But the specificity of the one presented on set by Anicet Mbida: it has a heating surface. Why? “Because it has been proven that when heating the breast, milk production is much better and smoother”
, explains the journalist, who also notes a high price: 300 euros.
Another innovation, also intended for breastfeeding mothers: the milk consumption monitor that allows monitoring the amount of milk consumed by the baby. “It’s a worry we remove from mothers”
, who will be able to know if their baby has drunk enough milk, he explains. However, the gadget is not yet available to the general public, emphasizes the journalist, who specifies that it will be in September.
