Difrax Natural Soother 2 Pack

The Difrax Natural Soother 2 Pack is a set of two silicone dummies made for babies from birth to around 6 months, giving them a soft, familiar way to satisfy the natural need to suck for comfort. Non-nutritive sucking is one of the simplest ways many babies settle, and having two soothers on hand means there's always a clean spare ready when one goes walkabout or needs a wash.

These pacifiers have a round, symmetrical teat — the shape most babies accept most easily, and one that works whichever way up it lands in the mouth, so your baby can turn it around without fuss. The teat is made from soft silicone, while the shield is 100% BPA-free polypropylene, and the whole soother carries Difrax's Dutch design and its distinctive butterfly-shaped shield. Difrax developed these pacifiers in collaboration with speech therapists and dentists.

How the butterfly shield works

• Butterfly-shaped shield: The shield is contoured to sit snugly against the face while curving away from the nose, leaving it clear so your baby can breathe freely while the soother is in.
• Ventilation holes: Two holes on each side of the shield allow extra airflow across the skin, which is designed to help prevent the irritation that can come from a shield pressing against damp skin.
• Round, symmetrical teat: Because the top and bottom of the teat match, it sits comfortably no matter which way it goes in — handy for a baby who likes to move it around in their mouth.

Cleaning and care

Before first use and after every use, rinse the soothers with warm water and a little mild soap. For a more thorough clean, you can sterilise them by placing them in boiling water for a few minutes. Always make sure they are completely dry before offering them to your baby.

Best For

The Difrax Natural Soother 2 Pack is a great option for parents who:

• Want a soft silicone dummy sized for babies from birth to around 6 months
• Prefer a round, symmetrical teat their baby can take either way up
• Like having a clean spare on hand at all times

It may not be the best fit if you:

• Are shopping for an older baby who has moved beyond the 0–6 month stage
• Prefer a one-piece dummy or a different teat profile

Keeping it safe to use

Difrax recommends replacing each soother roughly every 6 weeks. Check the teat daily by pulling on it firmly to make sure it hasn't torn or worn, and replace it straight away if you notice any damage. Offer a dummy only once you're sure your baby isn't hungry, and never attach cords, clips or toys to a soother during sleep — keep the sleep space clear and follow safe-sleep guidance.

Pandylane Pro Tip: Tie the daily pull-test to a moment you already repeat, like the morning nappy change, so the quick safety check becomes an easy habit rather than something to remember.
