The BIBS Colour Latex Pacifier 2 Pack is a classic round-teat dummy made from natural rubber latex, offered for non-nutritive sucking — that's sucking for comfort rather than for milk. It's the original round-nipple soother from BIBS, and this pack gives you two matching pacifiers in Sage and Hunter Green to keep one to hand and one in the wash.
The round nipple sits neutrally in the mouth, so there's no correct way up to worry about when your little one wants it during settling or sleep time. Latex is a softer, more elastic material than silicone, which some babies prefer, and each teat has a small valve that shapes the nipple to baby's mouth as they suck.
How it works
- Round nipple: The rounded teat is designed to encourage a tongue placement and sucking action similar to breastfeeding, with the sides of the tongue lifting and cupping around the nipple.
- Air-release valve: As baby closes down on the teat, a valve lets air out so the nipple flattens and shapes naturally to the oral cavity.
- Lightweight round shield: The shield curves away from the delicate skin around baby's mouth, and its minimal contact helps reduce moisture build-up from saliva that can lead to rashes and sore spots.
- One-size shield: The shield stays the same size regardless of the nipple size you choose, and is made from 100% food-safe material.
Choosing a size
BIBS round-teat pacifiers come in stages sized to age — Size 1 from 0+ months and Size 2 from 6+ months — so it's worth matching the teat to your baby's current stage rather than assuming a smaller teat is automatically the safer pick.
Disclaimer
The nipple is made from natural rubber latex, so some colour variation between pacifiers is normal and down to the natural material — it's not a fault. Latex is also relevant if there is a latex allergy in the family. Latex teats can swell, darken or become sticky over time, so inspect regularly and replace at the first sign of thinning, tears or wear. Always consider whether baby is hungry before offering a dummy — rooting, mouthing and hand-to-mouth movements can signal a feed is needed. If you're breastfeeding, it's generally suggested to wait until feeding is well established before introducing a dummy routinely. Keep clips, cords and attachments out of the cot, and follow safe-sleep guidance for your baby's sleep space.
