Infant Pacifier - Baby Dino

My sister didn't know the sex of her first child and neither did I. Based on reviews, I thought about getting a gender neutral gift and decided on the little blue dragon pacifier by Wubbanub. Boy or girl at this age what does the color of a stuffed animal mean? The baby was born, a girl the day before Thanksgiving. At two days old she was already using the Wubbanub pacifier I got her. Almost two weeks old now in between feedings she's gripping the dragon, holding it in place and seems to just love it! She's very calm and comfortable with her baby blue dragon Wubbanub. My sister as well loves the Wubbanub. On the outer part of the pacifier is an indentation for your finger to keep the nipple in place. It makes her life easier and her baby enjoys it thoroughly. Great gift, soft, cute and any color, any animal is good for any newborn in my opinion. I'll be ordering another one. Definitely recommend!

WubbaNubs are perfect add-on for decorating a baby shower gift. They are cute and vibrant, lots to choose from. Wash in one of those bra laundry bags and air dry, holds up great. This was a gift for a dragon themed baby boy shower, but they come in handy with young babies because you can tuck the animal into blanket or sleep sack or swing lap strap to keep the paci from slipping out of their mouth. We have several. Keep in mind though most daycares consider this a stuffed animal, and state regs. forbid it going in crib with child (SIDS rules), so you have to buy separate Soothhie paci without critter. We use the WubbaNub in crib at night and I am not worried. Sometimes the regulations are a bit over the top. Since pacifiers help to reduce SIDS risk, and our daughter kept spitting regular ones out, I consider this better than no paci with respect to that.

Baby loves this pacifier! Easy to hold, easy to clean, easy to shove into a pocket if needed.

Just what I wanted! Thank you

Alright, my little one has always been very picky about what he would accept. He is breastfed and we literally tried every pacifier there is (including the Soothie type this one has). We had limited success with all of them. He'd take any of them occasionally but never when we needed him to (naps, car rides, etc). Usually he would just gag. I don't know how well this would work on a younger baby but right when ours turned 11 weeks he really got into grabbing stuff and putting them in his mouth. That's how we introduced this adorable dino to him. We would just help him guide it into his mouth and he'd just go to town. It took awhile for him to accept this as a replacement to nursing to sleep but I'm happy to say my 18 week old will now nap without me having to nurse him! We just pop this guy on his chest and he'll usually hold the paci part with one hand and a leg of the dino with the other as he drifts off to sleep. I love this thing!

I'm so disappointed I didn't have these for my first two babies. With the first two I used the NUK binks with a strap that attached to the shirt. With my third, I used the soothies from day one, but they were always getting dropped behind the crib and around the house and as a mom of three I was always freaking out when I couldn't find a binky. Especially in the dark at night, I was blindly searching in the crib for one of the binks that I couldn't see. I ended up buy a pack of 6 just so I wouldn't lose my mind. THEN, I made the best decision ever by getting the Wubbanub. We never lose this thing. And I use the Halo sleep sack at night, leave his arms out and tuck it into the front wrap part so that it stays right in front of his face all night. See photo. We bring it everywhere. Its so easy to hold and transfer from hand to hand, and easy to find in the diaper bag. And I always have a regular soothie in my purse or diaper bag as a backup. Actually I just bought the polkadot giraffe and the red lion for two friends as baby gifts when I visited them at the hospital or soon after. UPDATE AUGUST 2017: My boy is 20 months old now and he still carries his WUBBANUBS around. The binky on this blue dino fell off after about 5 or 6 months, but I just took a separate detached soothie and a hair rubberband and attached the binky to the stuffed dino. He has another lion WUBBANUB as a backup. He carries these both around.

So far my 3month old doesn't love any pacifiers, but sometimes has tolerated this one an holds onto the little blue dinosaur. It is super cute and really easy to find in the diaper bag/around the house (unlike other ones that I constantly lose): The biggest downfall is it's hard to clean since the paci is attached to the animal. I hold it over boiling water with tongs, so just the paci gets cleaned. Also, it would be nice if they made little covers for the paci piece so I could just through it I the diaper bag without putting it in a baggie. Otherwise I love this and hope my LO decides to love it too so I can get more!

Great for infant
