After a few months of testing multiple doll's head and mouth patterns, the final prototype of our new Breastfeeding Baby Doll Puppet was ready to share with the world.
This project started in the Spring of 2019 when we contacted the talented Andrea Schewe to help us with the head/mouth pattern for this baby doll. It was a long process, but a great one!
Andrea was amazing at understanding the functionality of this baby doll puppet, she created a few sizes of a pattern for the mouth that at the end, only needed a few tweaks to become the final version.
Thanks to the advice and suggestions of several Lactation Consultants, Midwives, and La Leche League friends that we consulted, we added a few more details that were important for teaching, such as a more pronounced nose, and a longer tongue, for example.
This doll is a fantastic educational tool for Lactation Consultants, Breastfeeding Educators, Doulas, Midwives, and/or anyone teaching Breastfeeding.
It's a puppet type of doll, with an open head in the back for you to place your hand, to open and close its mouth.
This baby doll comes dressed with an onesie and a baby hat in gender neutral colors.
Also includes a cloth breast with lumps forms, and a string in the back that can be pulled to show inverted nipples.
You can choose skin tone, and the eyes, and clothes colors.
This baby doll is about 20 inches tall and it's not weighted.
Made to order - Wait time is 1-2 weeks
