Velvety soft, elliptical shaped nipple closely mimics the natural breast of mothers to promote natural latch-on for babies. This minimizes nipple confusion, making it easier to combine breast and bottle feeding.

TWO Hegen Nipple Extra Slow Flow
Velvety soft, elliptical shaped nipple closely mimics the natural breast of mothers to promote natural latch-on for babies. This minimizes nipple confusion, making it easier to combine breast and bottle feeding.
Air venting bypasses the milk to prevent aeration, minimizing the oxidation of previous nutrients. This reduces excessive air intake, safeguarding your baby from tummy upsets.
Hegen's super soft nipples are asymmetrical and off-center to allow for a natural upright feeding position at a 20 degrees tilt, similar to nursing from the breast. This minimizes the tilt that conventional baby bottles require, reducing the risk of milk back-flow which may cause mid-ear complications.
An indication of progress to the next nipple flow can be observed through a baby's body language and feeding behavior (examples can be found below).
Do consult a healthcare professional if you require more assistance in identifying the right nipple flow for your child.
Your little one usually provide hints on whether the current nipple size is right for them. Here is a small list of signs we've seen to help determine whether it's time to upsize or downsize!
