How To Choose The Right Nipple By Age & When to Switch ?
Experience a Natural Switch Between Breast & Bottle
Developed from over 70 years of breastfeeding research, Pigeon SofTouch™ is designed to facilitate a natural switch between breast and bottle by allowing the same natural sucking motion as when your baby drinks from the breast. Enjoy fuss-free feeding and a greater peace of mind.
Pigeon SofTouch™ supports the 3 Steps of Baby’s Natural Sucking Motion
The absence of any one of the above steps makes it difficult for baby to drink milk successfully.
Each SofTouch™ nipple size is designed with a unique shape, hole size and silicone hardness to provide a suitable milk flow in gentle increments to match your baby’s development.
Choose the right nipple size to match your baby’s development by using the age recommendation as a guide.

A SS size nipple is ideal for newborns as it has a smaller tip and the softnes and elasticity is closer to mother’s nipple. |
A S size nipple has an increased milk flow which is suitable for 1M+. Allows milk to drip out consistently and gradually with minimal sucking. |
A M size nipple has an increased milk flow which is suitable for 3M+. |

A L size nipple has an increased milk flow which is suitable for 6M+. The opening of the nipple is slightly bigger than M size nipple to allow more milk to drip out. |
A LL size nipple has an increased milk flow which is suitable for 9M+. The opening of the nipple is slightly bigger than L size nipple to allow more milk to drip out. |
A LLL size nipple has an increased milk flow which is suitable for 15M+. Milk drips out when there’s pressure on the nipple. This helps babies to control the flow of milk and train their sucking ability as babies at this age have developed a stronger jaw muscle. |
Nipple Replacement Guidelines:
| • Replace nipples every 2 months for optimal safety and hygiene • Rotate between 2 or more nipples during this period to prevent your baby from becoming too attached to a single nipple • Replace immediately if you notice any signs of damage, weakness, discoloration, changes in shape & wear from biting • Pay extra attention to nipple condition when your baby is teething. Inspect nipples before each use |
