Bolus, Gravity, and Intermittent Feeds. A bolus is a tube feed that is given like a meal. Typically, a larger amount is given in a short period of time, usually less than 30 minutes.

Sometimes infants will receive bolus feedings around the clock since this is a normal feeding pattern for newborns.
