Pacifiers

To select the appropriate size pacifier for your baby, it's important to consider your child's age and development. Difrax offers pacifiers in various sizes and shapes designed to meet the needs of different age groups. Generally, the younger the baby, the smaller and lighter the pacifier should be.

Every child is unique, but a good guideline when starting to introduce a pacifier is your child's age. For newborns up to 6 months old, a pacifier labeled '0-6 months' or 'newborn' is recommended. For older babies of 6 months and above, you can transition to a larger size pacifier, the '6+ months' pacifier.

For more information on which pacifier is most suitable for your child, you can consult our blog "Which pacifier does my baby need?"

We recommend replacing a pacifier every six weeks. Check a pacifier every day before giving it to your child by pulling on the suction part firmly in all directions. If the pacifier is damaged, replace it immediately.

Yes, it is possible to sterilize Difrax pacifiers. This can be done by boiling the pacifiers for 5 minutes. This eliminates any bacteria or harmful substances, keeping the pacifiers clean and safe for your baby.

You can also use a Pacifier Sterilization Egg. This is faster than boiling. Place one or two pacifiers in the sterilization egg and fill it with water. Close the lid and place the egg in the microwave. Set it for 3 minutes at 800 watts, and the pacifiers will be sterilized.

Absolutely! In addition to our pacifiers, Difrax also offers pacifier cords. You attach a pacifier cord to your child's clothing to prevent the pacifier from getting lost or falling on the ground. This keeps pacifiers always within reach! Check out our collection of different pacifier cords, matching your child's outfit.
