It is shown that the threshold productions of $\pi^0 pp$, $\pi^+ np$ and $\pi^+ d$ from $pp$ collisions can be consistently described by a model consisting of a pion s-wave rescattering and $N\bar N$ pair-terms of heavy-meson exchanges. The large difference between $\sigma^{tot} (pp\rightarrow\pi ^+ d)$ and $\sigma^{tot} (pp\rightarrow\pi ^+ np)$ is understood from the orthogonality of the deuteron and the $np$ scattering wave functions. In a calculation using the Paris potential to account for the initial and final $NN$ interactions, it is found that the data can be best reproduced by using a soft $\pi NN$ form factor with $\Lambda_{\pi} =650 $ MeV for a monopole form. This is consistent with an earlier study of pion production in the $\Delta$ excitation region.
