If you have a little one who's a fan of BIBS pacifiers, you've probably noticed that the newer pacifier can seem a tad smaller than the old ones. Not to worry! Here is lowdown on why that's happening.
BIBS dummies are made from natural rubber latex, a 100% natural material extracted from the Hevea tree. It's that brownish-yellow goodness that your baby loves to latch onto – super soft, elastic, and just like the real deal (aka mom's breast).
However, this natural rubber latex has a mind of its own and goes through an aging process thanks to everyday elements like UV light, air, saliva, and heat. The material is so elastic that it can change shape and size, especially when your little one is going to town with their strong vacuum skills.
If you've noticed your pacifier playing a sneaky size-changing trick, don't panic, it's completely fine. But, here's the kicker – some babes are pretty picky about their pacifiers. So, if it starts expanding, swap it out before your little one gets too comfy with the bigger size.
How often should I get getting new dummies?
BIBS recommend changing pacifiers every 4-6 weeks. If you spot changes in surface, size, or shape, or if there's any rupture, brittleness, or stickiness happening, it's time for a pacifier swap. Keep an eye out for these signs, especially once those tiny teeth start making an appearance. Ensure to give the nipple a gentle tug in all directions, and inspect for any issues before giving it to your little one.
