Philips AVENT Philips Soothie - Soothie - SCF099/21

[Employee of philipsglobal] I love the way this product worked on my baby she was so happy all the time she had the product with her

I received this product as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel. Unfortunately my son did not take to this pacifier. He's not a huge fan of pacifiers in general but he didn't seem to enjoy this one at all. He likes a different shape for the nipple, so unfortunately this pacifier did not work for us. I still plan on keeping it as it seems well made and his tastes could change in the next few months.

My 2-month-old baby really liked the Soothie. It was the only pacifier she wouldn't spit out within a few seconds of sucking on it which was surprising to me because it is a bit heavier than other pacifiers I have used with her. The shape was excellent. I have used other pacifiers that have the round shape and they can be a bit awkward. With this Soothie the shape fits under my baby's nose and fits comfortably around her lips, cheeks, and nose. One thing that I was a bit frustrated with was how things clung to it. If it fell on the floor or on the couch, hair and dirt would cling to it and the only way to get it off was to rinse it off. Other than that, it was a great product and I would definitely use it with future babies. Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this pacifier set.

Since coming home from the hospital over 6 weeks ago there is only 1 pacifier our son has wanted and that's the Avent pacifier we got from the hospital (green pacifier in the photos.) When given the opportunity to review this new Avent pacifier from the Stellar Product Testing Panel we were thrilled (blue pacifier in the photos.) ! We can't find a pacifier like we got and hoped this would allow us to have a backup! While we loved this new pacifier, our son is unfortunately incredibly picky. The pacifier from the hospital and the one we received to test, while similar, did have a few differences. The tester is slightly heavier, thicker, larger and thr nipple is a little shorter (which was my favorite part.) We're keeping the tester in hopes we can trick our son into taking it.

I was a little concerned at first that this was too big for our newborn's mouth (and it does fall out easily but right now, all pacifiers do). He ended up taking to it well and it hasn't interfered with breast feeding. Our LO is only 2 weeks old but so far it's going good! It's also helped so much with diaper changes because he used to scream before we introduced the pacifier.I received this product as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel.
