Boots Newborn Soothers

Argh soothers/ dummys are a very sore subject for me lol. When i was pregnant with twins one of the first things i bought were some dummys to help them be able to settle themselves or so i thought. Anyhow for the first wcouple of weeks they never had one as they were only tiny anyway so just slept and fed however once they reached around 4 weeks is when the waking through the night started and i gave into the doddy as with 2 of them it was the only way i could settle them and they could settle themselves. They would then go straight back to sleep. However me not realising when i bought the dummys from Boots they had a funny shaped teat known as ...  Read the complete review

Dummies, soothers, whatever you want to call them seems to have the nation split down the middle, you either approve of them or you don't.

OK, so it is the great dummy debate. I expect some of you will not let your child have a dummy, but I do. My feeling is that it is easier to "lose" a dummy than a thumb. Anyway that is another discussion entirely. The Boots Newborn Soothers are designed especially for tiny mouths. The teat is smaller and flatter than on an ordinary dummy. They come in a twin pack and are basically white, but one has a mint trim and the other a yellow. They have a tiny moon and stars cut out pattern around the edge - a word of warning though if your little one has a powerful suck they can end up with a rather attractive celestial pattern around their mouths! ...  Read the complete review
