Review on Smilo Newborn Orthodontic Pacifier: Aqua, BPA Free, 0-2 Months, Palate Support, Pack of 3 by Kelsey Brown

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Not sure if they're worth it? 🤷🏻‍♀️

While I love the idea of these orthodontic pacifiers, I don't think they're worth it. Firstly, I don't understand why the shape of the nipples on newborns is different than the larger sizes. It has a completely different shape. I don't understand how the shape can change so dramatically in a newborn compared to a few weeks old, not just size. Secondly, there is a slight bevel in the upper lip area. This can be seen in both newborn size and older sizes. It is such a large deviating bevel that sometimes the upper lip slips over the pachi and sucks in air. For large infant packs, the plastic part in the face has two large holes, one on each side of the nipple. These holes are relatively large and located very close to the nipple. As a result, the infant has to suck on the nipple with very tight lips, which in turn causes a lot of air to be sucked in. Since my baby is breastfed, this patient seems to be affecting his seizures. These patches definitely leave a mark on a child's face. Disappointing purchase.
