An infant feeding unit for the feeding of precise quantities of formula to an infant and which comprises a container calibrated for accurate measurement of liquid contents within the container and including a nipple and a retaining cap for retaining the nipple on the container. Included in the unit is a transfer cap engageable with both the calibrated container and a conventional infant feeding container, and including a projecting hub. The transfer cap is used to facilitate transfer of formula from the conventional container to the calibrated container, the hub being adapted for engagement with an infant feeding catheter whereby, when attached to the calibrated container, the unit can be used for feeding of an infant by the gavage method when the infant cannot be fed orally. |
