A collapsible baby bottle for reducing air-intake during feeding operations includes a body formed from disposable material, a plurality of linear ridges concentrically spanning across a non-uniform circumference thereof, and a coupling threadably attached directly to a top opening of the body. The apparatus further includes a nipple removably attached directly to the coupling, a cap removably affixed directly to the coupling for protecting the nipple from undesirable foreign debris and fluids, and a mechanism for preventing formation of powder formula lumps when mixing the powder formula and water within the body so that a homogenous mixture of the powder formula and the water is obtained. The apparatus further includes a strap tethered directly to the coupling and spaced from the body and the nipple respectively, and a barcode removably affixed directly to a bottom surface of the body for identifying nutritional information about the powder formula.

What is claimed as new and what is desired to secure by Letters Patent of the United States is: 1. A collapsible baby bottle for reducing air-intake during feeding operations, said collapsible baby bottle comprising: a body having a plurality of linear ridges concentrically spanning across a non-uniform circumference thereof, each of said linear ridges defining a line of weakness along which said body is selected compressed and expanded in such a manner that air is expelled outwardly from said body after being collapsed to a compressed position; a coupling threadably attached directly to a top opening of said body; a nipple removably attached directly to said coupling; a cap removably affixed directly to said coupling for protecting said nipple from undesirable foreign debris and fluids; and means for preventing formation of powder formula lumps when mixing the powder formula and water within said body so that a homogenous mixture of the powder formula and the water is obtained; wherein said powder formula lump preventing means comprises: an annular ring having an outer surface directly and statically engaged with an inner surface of said body, said ring being disposed medially between top and bottom ends of said body and further being wedged within a selected one of said linear ridges such that said ring remains at a fixed position while said body is agitated as well as when said body is compressed and expanded respectively; wherein said ring comprises: first, second, third and fourth monolithically formed linear segments having medial ends aligned with a center of said ring respectively, each of said first, second, third and fourth linear segments further having lateral ends monolithically formed with said outer surface in such a manner that said first, second, third and fourth linear segments are equidistantly spaced apart along a perimeter of said outer surface. 2. The collapsible baby bottle of claim 1, wherein said body further comprises: a plurality of first linear sides extending downwardly and outwardly away from a center of said body; a plurality of creases juxtaposed intermediately between said linear ridges and spanning along the entire perimeter of said body, said creases being registered parallel to said linear ridges respectively; and a plurality of second linear sides extending upwardly and outwardly away from the center of said body. 3. The collapsible baby bottle of claim 2, wherein each of said first and second linear sides has proximal ends directly engaged with corresponding ones of said creases. 4. The collapsible baby bottle of claim 3, wherein each of said first and second linear sides has distal ends directly engaged with corresponding ones of said linear ridges. 5. A collapsible baby bottle for reducing air-intake during feeding operations, said collapsible baby bottle comprising: a body formed from disposable material and having a plurality of linear ridges concentrically spanning across a non-uniform circumference thereof, each of said linear ridges defining a line of weakness along which said body is selected compressed and expanded in such a manner that air is expelled outwardly from said body after being collapsed to a compressed position; a coupling threadably attached directly to a top opening of said body; a nipple removably attached directly to said coupling; a cap removably affixed directly to said coupling for protecting said nipple from undesirable foreign debris and fluids; means for preventing formation of powder formula lumps when mixing the powder formula and water within said body so that a homogenous mixture of the powder formula and the water is obtained; a strap tethered directly to said coupling and spaced from said body and said nipple respectively; and a barcode removably affixed directly to a bottom surface of said body for identifying a nutritional information about the powder formula; wherein said powder formula lump preventing means comprises: an annular ring having an outer surface directly and statically engaged with an inner surface of said body, said ring being disposed medially between top and bottom ends of said body and further being wedged within a selected one of said linear ridges such that said ring remains at a fixed position while said body is agitated as well as when said body is compressed and expanded respectively; wherein said ring comprises: first, second, third and fourth monolithically formed linear segments having medial ends aligned with a center of said ring respectively, each of said first, second, third and fourth linear segments further having lateral ends monolithically formed with said outer surface in such a manner that said first, second, third and fourth linear segments are equidistantly spaced apart along a perimeter of said outer surface. 6. The collapsible baby bottle of claim 5, wherein said body further comprises: a plurality of first linear sides extending downwardly and outwardly away from a center of said body; a plurality of creases juxtaposed intermediately between said linear ridges and spanning along the entire perimeter of said body, said creases being registered parallel to said linear ridges respectively; and a plurality of second linear sides extending upwardly and outwardly away from the center of said body. 7. The collapsible baby bottle of claim 6, wherein each of said first and second linear sides has proximal ends directly engaged with corresponding ones of said creases. 8. The collapsible baby bottle of claim 7, wherein each of said first and second linear sides has distal ends directly engaged with corresponding ones of said linear ridges. 9. A method for reducing air-intake while feeding liquid formula to an infant, said method comprising the steps of: a. providing a body formed from disposable material and having a plurality of linear ridges concentrically spanning across a non-uniform circumference thereof; b. adapting said body to an expanded position by expanding each of said linear ridges apart from each other; c. depositing a predetermined quantity of powder formula and water into said body; d. removably attaching a nipple directly to a coupling; e. threadably attaching said coupling directly to a top opening of said body; f. removably affixing a barcode directly to a bottom surface of said body for identifying a nutritional information about the powder formula; g. mixing the powder formula and the water within said body while preventing formation of powder formula lumps so that a homogenous mixture of the powder formula and the water is obtained; and h. selectively adapting said body to compressed position by compressing said linear ridges so that air is expelled outwardly from said body after being collapsed to a fully compressed position; wherein step g. comprises the steps of: providing an annular ring; positioning said ring within said body by directly and statically engaging an outer surface of said ring with an inner surface of said body; and wedging said ring within a selected one of said linear ridges such that said ring remains at a fixed position while said body is agitated as well as when said body is compressed and expanded respectively.
