Abstract: The invention is directed to an absorbent neck ring for a baby bottle which is disc shaped with an aperture at the center. The ring is fitted to the bottle, preferably with elasticized cotton or other elastic fabric such that the aperture passes over the bottle opening and is secured below the screw fixtures when the cap is attached to the bottle. The ring ensures that any leaks from the bottle or the baby's mouth will be absorbed, rather than dripping on clothing or elsewhere. The ring may be laundered and re-used, or it may be used in a single use capacity. The ring may be provided in various colors and decorative configurations, such as an image of a teddy bear's face or a baseball.

The ring ensures that any leaks from the bottle or the baby's mouth will be absorbed, rather than dripping on clothing or elsewhere. The ring may be laundered and re-used, or it may be used in a single use capacity. The ring covers the bottle cap and provides a circular aperture at its center for the nipple to pass through. The ring may be provided in various colors and decorative configurations, such as an image of a teddy bear's face or a baseball.
