Bottles for feeding kids have a long history! Here are a Roman example and a medieval one, alongside the replicas that I made. The very round Roman bottle was found in the Netherlands but I have no exact dating with it. It’s part of the RMO collection in Leiden. The medieval jug has the advantage that it’s made of stoneware. It’s probably easier to keep it clean. The jug was made in Langerwehe around 1350-1400. The original is in the Boijmans van Beuningen museum.
