As a new mom, I had a lot to learn. Motherhood wasn’t the glittery dream that I imagined during all those months of preparation. My daughter considered me a human pacifier, so I was grateful when she finally decided to take a “paci” for good. Here are some of the pacifier tips that got me through those tough moments.
- The glow-in-the-dark pacifiers are worth the effort. In the middle of the dark night, it’s no fun to crawl on your hands and knees feeling around on the floor for a piece of plastic and silicone. That glow-in-the-dark magic is like a beacon at 3 AM.
- Pacifiers can be put in the dishwasher. I didn’t even worry about washing them separately. They just went right in the silverware caddy.
- A pacifier clip can be a lifesaver. Lilly’s Love offers three different shade packs. A strip of ribbon with a plastic piece on the end might not seem that amazing, but you’ll understand its role when your child pops out that paci over…and over….and over. It’s a sanity saver if I ever saw one. If you’re looking for a great baby shower gift, this is it!
4. I’m not a doctor, but I was told by our pediatrician that it was okay to let our daughter have her pacifier up to age 2. WHEW. I’d read that we needed to get rid of it by age 1, but he said it was fine as long as it didn’t cause issues with her teeth coming in.
5. When our kids started being strategic about hiding pacifiers around the house so that they wouldn’t go without, we knew it was time to break the habit. Luckily for us, both of our kids weaned off it without too much heartache. It was a little bit hard to stick with the program the first night, but after that it was all good.
Lilly’s Love pacifier clips don’t rust because they don’t have metal. If your child is a chewer, you know the importance of that fact! These bright, colorful strips are great for babies. I love how the clip has a reverse pattern; the swirls and polka dots are my favorite. Lilly’s Love is offering one lucky reader a 3-pack of pacifier clips. Check out the giveaway form below; open to US readers (ages 18+.) Void where prohibited by law. Good luck!
I want to win for my nieces birthday.
I’m currently pregnant with my second lil boy, and I can really use these when he’s here!
I would like to win for a girl I work with having her first…a girl.
I like that the clips are washable and won’t rust.
I like the purple/teal/white set. My cousin just had a baby.
The purple set is really cute, too. It’s different than the pink but would still be great for a girl.
I have been looking for a good paci clip to use while baby wearing! I have a pacifier spitter who won’t sleep without one- go figure.
