For modern diaper-wearing moms, the demand for dual nutrition—directly from mom and indirectly from the bottle—is significant. As most moms have to return to work when the baby is 4–6 months old, staying by their side for daily breastfeeding becomes impractical. And everyone understands that mother's milk is the ideal nutritional source for the baby's development.
Ultra-soft nipple resembling the mother's – an indispensable need for the child.
Most experts advise introducing bottle feeding at least 2 weeks before returning to work to allow both mom and baby to adjust appropriately. Bottle feeding requires different mouth and tongue movements than breastfeeding, so the baby may take some time to adapt to this change.
However, if moms understand the child's psychology and needs, the concern about bottle-feeding will no longer be overwhelming. In addition to feeding the baby from the bottle according to their needs and feeding rhythm, moms should not forget the most important factor, which is the less difference between the bottle nipple and the mother's nipple, the higher the success rate.

Using a nipple with a soft, breast-like material and a moderate milk flow will provide the baby with a comfortable and effective breastfeeding experience. While bottle-feeding, it's advisable to give your baby frequent breaks and switch sides to create a similar sensation to breastfeeding. Also, note for the baby to stop feeding when showing signs of fullness.
Correct latch – an essential skill when breastfeeding.
According to science, the correct latch or positioning of the baby's lips on the mother's nipple is the key to successful breastfeeding. A correct latch not only helps the baby receive maximum nutrition from the mother but is also an effective way for the mother to 'call' the milk.
For babies, the correct latch plays a significant role in breastfeeding by promoting natural tongue movements, ensuring a steady milk flow, and reducing instances of spit-up. Conversely, an incorrect latch can directly affect nutrient absorption, leading to insufficient milk intake and, in the long run, the risk of malnutrition, respiratory and digestive infections, and allergies.
With Pigeon PPSU Generation III's latest research, the experience of bottle and breastfeeding becomes effortlessly harmonious.
Always accompanying and continuously improving mother and baby care products, the renowned Japanese brand Pigeon has just introduced its latest innovation of 2022 – the Pigeon Japan Generation III baby bottle. Highlighted by the magical latch design and an ultra-soft nipple resembling cotton candy. It can be said that this is Pigeon's most outstanding product to date, after over 60 years of studying natural sucking movements of babies, focusing on the three crucial steps in baby bottle feeding: latching, tongue movement, and milk swallowing.

Product crafted on a modern assembly line
Research conducted by Pigeon reveals that a nursing baby takes the mother's nipple into the mouth to a depth of about 22mm from the tip, with the lips covering up to the areola. The mother's nipple is also studied to be extendable up to 4 times the normal length in the baby's mouth. Based on this research, Pigeon has introduced the Generation III baby bottle with an additional magical latch design in a position and depth close to the recommended size to encourage easy and proper nipple sucking, as if they were breastfeeding. This latch helps support the baby in placing the tongue in the right position, promoting natural tongue movement, increasing grip on the baby's lips, and preventing milk leakage from the baby's mouth corners.

Furthermore, the new generation nipple has been enhanced by Pigeon to closely mimic the mother's nipple, enabling the baby to naturally switch between breastfeeding and bottle-feeding. The Generation III Pigeon nipple is made from 100% silicone and is much softer than previous models, allowing the baby's tongue to move more freely and providing an efficient breastfeeding experience.
