MAM Air Soothers - Pink

It is recommended to sterilize the soother before first use and regularly thereafter, especially when your baby is young or has a weakened immune system. For older babies, daily sterilization or cleaning is generally sufficient, along with cleaning after each use.

For hygiene and safety reasons, it's advisable to replace soothers every 1-2 months. Always inspect the soother before each use and replace it immediately if there are any signs of wear, damage, or degradation.

Yes, the SkinSoft Silicone teat is made from a high-quality, food-grade silicone that is safe for babies. While durable, it's still susceptible to wear and tear, especially once teeth emerge. Regular inspection is crucial.

No, this soother is specifically designed for babies aged 16+ months. The size and shape are optimized for older infants' oral development and safety. Using an incorrect size could be uncomfortable or even unsafe for a younger baby.

The soother should sit comfortably in your baby's mouth without causing distress. For the 16+ months range, it should feel secure and not easily fall out. The orthodontic design is meant to fit naturally. If you notice persistent discomfort or improper placement, it might be the wrong size or shape.

While soothers are designed to be durable, they are not chew toys. If your baby starts to chew or bite on the soother, particularly if they have teeth, this can lead to damage. Inspect the soother carefully after such instances and replace it immediately if any damage is found. Consider offering a teething toy instead if the primary urge is to chew.

Some babies take time to adjust to a new soother. Ensure it's the correct size for their age (16+ months). Try offering it during calming times, like after a feed or before sleep. Consistency and patience are key.

Immediately discontinue use if the soother shows any signs of wear, damage, stickiness, or discoloration. Replace it with a new one. Discoloration can occur over time due to food or light exposure, but if it's accompanied by damage, it's a safety concern.

Always refer to the specific instructions printed on the sterilizing case itself for exact water quantities and microwave times, as these can vary slightly. Ensure your microwave wattage is within the recommended range. If issues persist, try a different sterilization method, such as a dedicated steam sterilizer.

Although the MAM Air Soothers are designed with extra airflow to reduce skin contact and irritation, some babies have very sensitive skin. Ensure the soother is thoroughly cleaned and dried before each use. If irritation persists, consult with your pediatrician. Temporarily reducing usage time might also help.
