More About Timelines

Timelines are estimates, based on our averages and couriers’ commitments. We always aim to get your order to you quicker than this — but they’re not a guarantee. Wherever your order is in the journey, we’ll keep you updated every step of the way.

Returns Made Easy

Unfortunately, we can’t accept returns on this product once it’s been opened. This is usually because:

  • It’s a hygiene or sanitary product

If there’s a defect or fault, though, it’s always covered as a warranty claim.

If the item is still unopened, you can return it within 30 days of receiving it. Just request a return from your account or through our chat, and we’ll handle the rest.

You can send it back yourself, or we can arrange a courier and give you an upfront quote — direct from the courier. If your return is for any other reason, it’s free.

Goes great with ...

  • Sized for tiny babies: Size M is designed for babies weighing under 3 kilograms, fitting the sucking fossa of a small mouth so baby can close its mouth while sucking.
  • Supports the sucking reflex: Can be used to stimulate the sucking reflex inside baby's mouth, which is necessary for oral feeding.
  • Asymmetrical shield: The unique shield shape allows the soother to be used with baby in a side-lying position.
  • Hollow head design: The open shape of the soother head makes it possible to check baby's tongue movement during use.
  • Hygienic handle: Designed so you can hold and offer the soother without touching the head that goes into baby's mouth.
  • Silicone rubber: Made from silicone rubber, so autoclave sterilisation is possible for higher-temperature cleaning.

The Pigeon Preemie Care Soother is a specialist dummy designed for the very smallest babies — those weighing under 3 kilograms. Its size M teat and shield are shaped to suit a preemie's small mouth, offering gentle non-nutritive sucking and a familiar, reassuring sensation during those early days.

Beyond comfort, this soother is designed to help stimulate the sucking reflex inside baby's mouth — the reflex that supports oral feeding. The teat fits neatly into the sucking fossa of a small mouth, so baby is able to close its mouth around it while sucking, which is often where standard-sized dummies fall short for the tiniest infants.

Thoughtful design for the smallest babies

Several details set this soother apart for preemie care. The shield has a unique asymmetrical shape, so it can be used comfortably when baby is in a side-lying position rather than only face-up. The soother head is hollow, which makes it possible to observe baby's tongue movement while it's in use — a genuinely useful feature when you or a caregiver are watching how baby sucks. The handle is designed for hygienic handling, letting you offer and remove the soother without touching the head that goes into baby's mouth.

How it Works

  • Sized for under 3 kg: The size M teat and shield are proportioned for a preemie's small mouth, so it fits the sucking fossa and baby can close its mouth around the teat while sucking.
  • Sucking-reflex support: It can be used to stimulate the sucking reflex inside baby's mouth, the reflex that is necessary for oral feeding.
  • Asymmetrical shield: The shape allows the soother to be used with baby in a side-lying position, not just on the back.
  • Hollow soother head: The open shape lets you check baby's tongue movement during use.
  • Hygienic handle: Designed so you can hold and position the soother without touching the head.

Material and cleaning

The soother is made from silicone rubber, which is clear and shape-stable. Because of the material, autoclave sterilisation is possible — useful in clinical or neonatal settings where higher-temperature sterilising is used. As with any dummy, inspect it regularly for cracks, tears, stickiness or discolouration, and replace it when you see signs of wear.

Best For

The Pigeon Preemie Care Soother is a great option for parents and caregivers who:

  • Are caring for a baby weighing under 3 kilograms who needs a correctly sized soother
  • Want a soother that can support the sucking reflex alongside oral feeding
  • Need a design that works with side-lying positioning and allows tongue movement to be observed
  • Require a soother that can be autoclave sterilised

Disclaimer

A dummy offers comfort through non-nutritive sucking and should never delay or replace a feed — always consider hunger cues first. Use should be supervised and appropriate to your baby's stage, and any clips, cords or attachments should be kept out of the sleep space. For a preemie or a baby with feeding or medical needs, follow the guidance of your healthcare team on when and how to use a soother.
