Zusammenfassung:Systems, devices, and methods for delivering a therapeutic or other agent to a breastfeeding child are disclosed herein. A delivery system configured in accordance with the present technology can include, for example, a wearable device configured to be positioned on a breast during breastfeeding. The system can further include an agent source configured to house the agent and a fluid source configured to supply a supplemental fluid. The agent source and fluid source can be fluidly coupled to the wearable device via a connector. When the device is positioned on the breast and the child is breastfeeding, the supplemental fluid mixes with the agent and flows through the connector into the wearable device and into the mouth of the breastfeeding child.
