This GumDrop pacifier is for premature or low birth weight babies. It has a natural scent and the color is lime green. The pacifier is curved to fit babys face and is half the weight of other silicone pacifiers. Its single-body construction wont come apart, and the soft silicone covers entire surface, so the pacifier rests comfortably against babys face. Modeled after the most commonly used baby bottle nipple and pacifier shapes and meets Consumer Product Safety Commission standards for pacifiers.

For babies who prefer the breast September 30, 2008
(The following review is for the FULL-TERM size GumDrop pacifiers, but my daughter did use the PREEMIE one for about 1 week before she moved on to the FULL-TERM size.)
My daughter wanted to constantly use me as her pacifier and I tried every pacifier in the store but she wouldn't latch on to any of them for more than a few seconds. I read the reviews and decided to order a few of these so that maybe I could get a few hours of sleep instead of having her 'nurse' off me all night. They worked wonders! These are the only pacifiers she will use. They are lightweight, which is great b/c they're less likely to wake her up by falling out of her mouth once she's asleep. Plus they are very bendable so if she is asleep on her side they won't put too much pressure on her little face. Thanks Hawaii Medical!
The Best Pacifier October 30, 2007
My son was a preemie, and the NICU gave him the GumDrop preemie and full-term pacifier to use during his long hospitalization -- he absolutely loved it! Designed by a medical company, and made of hospital-grade silicone, the GumDrop is lightweight, very soft, and features a unibody construction, so there are no parts that can come loose. The shape of the pacifier allowed him (and all the other preemies in the NICU) to use it in the side-lying position, even with all his tubes (i.e. CPAP, nasal cannula, nasal gavage tube, etc.). You can put your finger in the open end, allowing you to easily control or hold the pacifier; it also allows you to feel how strong your baby's suck is. NNS (non-nutritive sucking) is very important for a baby's development, and our baby got to practice a lot of NNS with his GumDrop. It helped him to self-soothe himself as well when we couldn't be at his cribside.
Overall, I highly recommend this product. The price is great, although the S/H charges are high.
