I believe this is because the bottle image is a result of digital  
manipulation of the breast image. The baby with the bad breastfeeding  
latch has just had its virtual lips stretched wide apart in  
Photoshop, no other alterations, to accommodate the image of the  
bottle. If you zoom right in, you can see the digital artefacting  
around the corner of the mouth.

A couple of people asked me where I "found" this image:
http://www.factoryofinfinitebliss.com/wordpress/files/sucklingbabies.swf
so I just thought I'd clarify here: this is just the two images at  
the original advertisement, overlaid, with the transition  
demonstrated, to make it undeniable that the advertising images are  
falsified.

The page is owned by a friend of mine, who overlaid the graphics when  
I requested an opinion on the original images, and gave me permission  
to post it here.
