What you should know

For some babies, dummies are a source of comfort and security.
Non-nutritive sucking is a natural activity for babies.
Sucking on a dummy may help settle an infant’s reflux and ease the pain of teething.
For parents dummies can provide some much needed peace!
Dummies in latex - latex is more supple and soft and natural feeling, next best thing to Mum’s breast.
Regularly check the condition of a baby’s dummy.
A dummy needs to be kept very clean or it could be a source of infection.
Before each use, tug on the teat and ring or handle to make sure they are secure.
Never sweeten the dummy with sugary substances, or it can cause tooth decay. In addition, this will damage the teat and degrade the natural latex.
