Philips Avent Ultra Air Pacifier, 6-18 Months, Blue/Green, Fashion Decos, 4 Pack, SCF342/42

I was given these pacifiers to try as part of the weeSpring Parent Panel. My daughter was just 9 weeks old and only using the pacifiers given to us from the hospital. Upon the first time I gave her one of the Phillips Avent Ultra Air pacifiers, she latched on like a pro and loved it. What I really noticed from the beginning is that these pacifiers seemed to stay in her mouth and she didn't spit them outline other pacis we've tried. The skin around her mouth stayed dry and blemish-free. I also like how lightweight they are and that the carrying case fits both pacis easily. Cleaning and keeping the pacifiers clean was a breeze! Having the case is a nice touch. This was so convenient when trying to dig through the diaper bag to try to find a clean paci when in desperate need! Overall, love these and would definitely purchase more!

When I received the Phillips Avent Ultra Air Pacifier in the mail from the weeSpring Parent Panel, I was really excited to see what my 14 month old daughter would think about them. She can be pretty picky about pacifiers and I was hopeful she would enjoy the sturdy and open-air flow design. When I gave one to her however she couldn't seem to acclimate herself to the different texture of the nipple, which is a little less smooth. Also the nipple to base weight ratio made it so if she let up on the suckle just a bit, it would fall out of her mouth because of the heavier base. She used it off and on for a couple of weeks but then pushes it away when we try to give it to her. Some babies are picky and my daughter didn't seem to like it. As a parent however, I really appreciated the way you could sterilize both pacifiers in their carrying case with water in the microwave (genius) and how sturdy it was.

My little guy just turned 7 months old, and we've been trying to transition him to age-appropriate orthodontic pacifiers for about a month. His first few teeth have recently come through, so we wanted to make this happen as soon as possible. We initially tried another recommended brand, but it was pretty hit or miss. Sometimes he would take it, and other times he seemed to gag or repeatedly spit it out. Then we received the Philips Avent Ultra Air Pacifiers. They came in a convenient clear case that doubles as a sterilizer, and the designs were cute and on trend (my favorite is the "hello" design). Upon receiving them, I washed them and then sterilized using some water and the plastic case. The process was pretty easy and straightforward. I definitely loved the convenience! Then came the moment of truth: I presented my little man with one of the pacifiers and... he took it right away! There was no gagging or immediate spitting out. He's been using them for about a week now and he loves them. He is still a teething baby, so he tends to play with the pacifiers and chew on the plastic parts from time to time, but they soothe him better than the other orthodontic pacifiers we tried. Since he is teething pretty hard these days, the amount of drool flowing from our tiny human is never-ending. The drool that was getting trapped under his other pacifiers was causing a little bit of a rash on his chin, but the vents on these seemed to help a bit. The rash hasn't completely disappeared, but it's definitely better than it was; his skin also seems drier than it does when he's not using a pacifier. I will say that the vent holes could stand to be a little larger (maybe by making the center piece smaller), but that's a pretty minor complaint. Plus, we've finally been able to get rid of the not-so-orthodontic pacifiers he had previously adored, so these are definitely a winning product for us. Thank you to the weeSpring Parent Panel for providing us with these pacifiers!

I was given this Pacifier to try as part of the weeSpring Parent Panel. I wish I could say my little one liked these pacifiers because the design was nice, including the way the pacifier was shaped to fit in his mouth. But that is the very thing I think he didn't like. His first pacifier was shaped without significant curves. When I gave him this one, he gave me a disgusted face and only played with it in his hands before he threw it. I like how the two pacifiers fit in a box for transportation, but I'm not sure I would use the box for sanitation. I can just as easily sanitize them with his bottles.
