Pacifiers

  • Pacifiers can be helpful for soothing babies and may reduce the risk of SIDS (sudden infant death syndrome) when used during sleep.

  • Avoid dipping pacifiers in sweet liquids like honey or juice — this can cause cavities.

  • Choose a one-piece pacifier that’s the right size for your child’s age.

  • Clean and replace pacifiers regularly — especially after illness or if damaged.

  • Try to wean the pacifier by age 2–3 to prevent bite changes or speech issues.

  • If you’re having trouble stopping pacifier use, ask BalloonDoc 🎈🦷 for gentle ways to help your child transition.
