How to Use:
Sterilise before first use (boil 5 min, or steam steriliser, or cold-water tablets). Offer the pacifier to baby; some babies take to it immediately, others need a few days. Don’t dip it in honey, sugar, or food (encourages tooth decay later). Sterilise daily for newborns; for older infants, hot soapy water + rinse is generally sufficient.

Precautions:
– Inspect the pacifier before EVERY use pull gently on the teat to check it’s not loose or torn
– Replace at any sign of damage, discolouration, or stickiness; typically replace every 1-2 months
– Never tie a pacifier around baby’s neck only use a designed pacifier clip with strap under 22 cm
– Don’t dip in sugar/honey risks tooth decay (and honey is unsafe for babies under 1 year)
– For breastfeeding mothers: introduce the pacifier only AFTER breastfeeding is well established (~4 weeks) to avoid nipple confusion
– Sucking on a pacifier past age 2-3 may affect tooth alignment wean gradually

Q&A:
Q: Will it cause nipple confusion if I’m breastfeeding?
A: Possibly, in the first 4 weeks. Most pediatricians recommend waiting until breastfeeding is well established (good latch, steady weight gain) before offering a pacifier. After that, most babies move easily between breast and pacifier.

Q: How often should I replace it?
A: Every 1-2 months minimum, OR at any sign of: cracks, tears, change in colour, or sticky/swollen silicone. Silicone degrades with sterilising and use; old pacifiers can crack and become a choking hazard.

Q: Will it ruin my baby’s teeth?
A: Short-term use is fine and the orthodontic shape is designed to minimise dental impact. Long-term use (past 2-3 years) can affect tooth alignment. Wean off gradually around age 1-2; full weaning by age 3.
