Nipple Information
The round nipple promotes a similar tongue placement and sucking technique when breastfeeding, since the round shape allows the sides of the tongue to elevate and cup around the nipple, just like it does during breastfeeding. This also prevents “nipple”-confusion if you are both breastfeeding and supplementing with a bottle.
The nipple is equipped with an anti-colic valve, that lets out air which reduces air swallowed while feeding.
The nipple is produced from natural rubber latex. Since natural rubber latex is a natural material, colour variation may occur.
This set contains
2 round natural rubber latex nipples in your choice of, Slow or Medium flow.
Care
Before first use
Before first use, disassemble and clean the product by placing all components in boiling water for 5 min. to ensure hygiene.
Subsequently cleaning
The latex nipple must be cleaned and sterilised before each use by scalding.
- Pour it with boiling water and let it soak in the water for approx. 5 min.
- Pick it up and let it dry on a clean towel.
DO NOT use microwave sterilising or cleaning products or even dishwasher as it will break down the natural rubber latex. Renew the nipple after using it for 4-6 weeks for safety and hygiene reasons. Please do not leave the nipple in direct sun.
Do not heat any plastic parts or the nipple in a microwave oven. The glass bottle can withstand microwave heating, but we recommend that you washed it in the above-mentioned ways to ensure it is absolutely clean.
Further, always inspect the nipple before each use by pulling the nipple in all directions inspecting it carefully before use, and replacing the nipple at the first sign of damage or weakness.
