Like all dummies, it's made for non-nutritive sucking (sucking for comfort rather than milk), so it can be offered during settling or sleep once you've checked that baby isn't hungry.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe round nipple is shaped to resemble the size and shape of a mother's soft nipple, and BIBS notes that this is designed to encourage a similar tongue placement and sucking technique to breastfeeding. On this basis the Boheme is described as recommended by midwives to support natural breastfeeding. Whether a baby takes to it comes down to individual preference — some babies settle with a round teat straight away, and some don't take a dummy at all.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow the teat and shield are designed\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRound natural rubber latex nipple:\u003c\/strong\u003e The rounded shape lets the sides of the tongue lift and cup around the teat, echoing the tongue movement used during breastfeeding.

Always offer a dummy rather than forcing it, and never sweeten, modify or use it to give medicine. Consider hunger first: rooting, mouthing and hand-to-mouth movements can signal that a feed is needed. For sleep, follow a full safe-sleep setup and don't attach clips, cords or toys while baby is sleeping. Inspect the dummy regularly and replace it at the first sign of cracks, tears, stickiness, swelling, thinning or discolouration.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Scandi League Brands","offers":[{"title":"Size 1","offer_id":47281935941809,"sku":"BIBS-BLP4-1","price":490.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":false},{"title":"Size 2","offer_id":47281935974577,"sku":"BIBS-BLP4-2","price":490.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0728\/9559\/4673\/files\/bibs-boheme-latex-pacifiers-4-pack-1.jpg?v=1784536997","url":"https:\/\/pandylane.com\/products\/bibs-boheme-latex-pacifiers-4-pack","provider":"Pandylane","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
