How to Squeeze the Air Out of a Playtex Drop-Ins

If you have chosen to use the Playtex Drop-Ins system for your baby, you may wonder how to squeeze out any air that remains inside the liner before you feed your baby. The Playtex Drop-Ins system works with the Playtex Nurser Holder, a Drop-Ins liner and a Playtex bottle nipple and screw cap. Playtex Drop-Ins liners are collapsible, meaning the liner shrinks as the baby sucks so the baby does not suck any air. Playtex Drop-Ins simulate breastfeeding and are recommended for babies with colic or excessive gas.

Things You'll Need

  • Playtex Nurser Holder
  • Playtx Drop-Ins liner
  • Breast milk or formula
  • Playtex nipple and screw cap

Instructions

    • 1

      Prepare the Playtex Drop-Ins bottle by placing the liner in the Nurser Holder and filling with breast milk or formula.

    • 2

      Screw the nipple on to the Nurser Holder.

    • 3

      Hold the nipple between the thumb and forefinger of your left hand and gently push the bottom of the liner up with the forefinger of your right hand. Air will release through the nipple.

    • 4

      Stop pushing the liner when breast milk or formula fills the nipple.
