nipples
Bottle feeding tips
Nipples are the small projections at the center of the breasts or chest, through which mammals nurse their young.
In humans, nipples are sensitive and often erogenous.
The word extends to nipple-shaped objects: a rubber nipple on a baby bottle, or a small threaded fitting connecting pipes.
The baby latched onto her nipple.
He attached the grease nipple to the fitting.
