Gum Drop Pacifiers
If you made a list of the top five musts that are not negotiable when it comes to your new baby, those values would be pretty easy to think about. You want your baby to be happy. You want your baby to be loved. You want your baby to learn and to develop in every aspect including physical, emotional and social skills. But the one value that would have to top the list is you want your baby to be safe.
That need to be sure everything your newborn will come in contact with in any way is absolutely safe must dominate every decision you make about your child. It is the first consideration when it comes to baby clothes and furniture. You carefully baby proof your home so she could possibly get into the wrong cabinets and hurt herself. But the area that tops the list of things that must pass a safety tests has to be things that go in the baby's mouth.
The one object that you buy specifically to go into her mouth that is not food is the pacifier you give to your newborn to provide comfort for that continuous urge to suck between feedings. You might assume that any pacifier you might buy would be made with the safety of the baby in mind. But when it comes to your infant, assumptions just won't cut it. It pays to inspect every aspect of that pacifier with an eye for what might go wrong when your baby spends hours a day with that small item in her mouth.
The gum drop design of pacifiers was clearly designed by a company that knows babies. It was also designed with the eye of a mother in mind because you can tell that safety is a top priority in how the gum drop pacifier is made. The entire pacifier is one continue piece of silicone. The surface of the pacifier is smooth and unbroken with no seams that could cause the pacifier to break off small pieces that baby could swallow. And because the pacifier is not two pieces fitted together, there is no chance baby will pry the handle away from the nipple and create a choking hazard when mom and dad are not looking.
The gum drop pacifier is also designed to easily roll away from the baby if she falls asleep on the side of her face with the pacifier in her mouth. It is made to fit the baby's mouth perfectly so the child does not have to adapt her mouth to the unit. And the soft construction of the gum drop design is delicate to the sensitive skin of a newborn so there is no chance the child will take an injury or scratch because of the pacifier.
To the baby, that pacifier is mom for the hours when she is not nursing. Its nice to know that the people that make the gum drop pacifier think like a mom when they create their pacifiers because every aspect of the pacifier has one thing in mind which is the safety and happiness of your baby.
