Pacifiers

Are Lorelli pacifier clips safe for babies?

The length of the band on all Lorelli pacifier keepers is within regulation and strangulation dangers are virtually impossible. The band should NEVER be lengthened or fastened to lose parts and strings! Check the band for damage before use and always clip on firmly!

How often and for how long are children allowed to suck a pacifier daily?

All children are different and have their individual needs. Sucking calms and relaxes babies and should therefore not be limited. The pacifiers support healthy development so you do not need to worry about them harming your baby's oral cavity development.

Should I allow my child to use a pacifier?

Babies are born with the natural urge to suck. When the child wants to sleep, needs comforting or wants to relax, he or she will be happy about having a pacifier. You can choose refrain pacifier usage when the baby is playing as the baby is already distracted, and most likely, relaxed by interaction of toys. Many pediatric dentists and other medical experts do recommend the use of pacifiers because it is much easier to wean a baby off of pacifiers than it is to wean off of thumb sucking.

Can babies swallow the pacifier?

No. All Lorelli pacifiers are developed in comply with international safety standards. It is impossible for babies to swallow them. In rare cases, babies can manage to squeeze the entire pacifier in their mouths. Should the pacifier become lodged in baby's mouth, remove the pacifier as gently as possible by grabbing the pacifier knob. It is designed to be easily and safely removed.

How often should the pacifier be replaced?

Check the pacifier before each use - especially when baby is teething - and throw away at the first signs of damage or weakness. However, we recommend the pacifier be replaced every two months for hygenic purposes.

How are pacifiers cleaned?

Before first use, and at regular intervals thereafter, boil the pacifier in water for up to five minutes, or use a sterilizer. Please avoid leaving the pacifier in the sterilizing solution for longer than the time recommended. Dishwasher safe (top rack only).
