To achieve your breastfeeding goals, you may choose to pump and store your breast milk so that it is always available when your baby needs it, even when you are not around or your partner wants to feed your little one. It is recommended to spend six to eight weeks establishing a regular breastfeeding pattern before introducing a bottle. It is also advisable to discuss all options with your midwife or lactation consultant, as they are best equipped to advise you on the optimal time to introduce a bottle, depending on your individual situation. It is important to feel confident that your baby will return to breastfeeding, so choosing the right bottle to avoid nipple confusion is crucial. The Lansinoh mOmma bottle with NaturalWave nipple has been specifically designed for your little one to enjoy your pumped breast milk, even when you are apart. Based on over 50 years of research, the NaturalWave nipple promotes your baby's instinctive sucking motion for natural oral development, helping you easily switch between breast and bottle while maintaining your established breastfeeding patterns. Extensive research has shown that a baby's sucking style is very different from that of an adult and involves three key steps: initial latching, the peristaltic tongue movement (where your baby's tongue moves in a wave-like motion), and swallowing. It is very important for a baby to be able to perform the peristaltic tongue movement, as it promotes natural oral and jaw development. The Lansinoh NaturalWave nipple is clinically proven to support this natural feeding pattern.
