Pacifiers Question

What is the difference in ages? My daughter uses the nuk silicone ones and the package said 0 to 6 months on it. They don't make them in any other sizes/ages. I just realized that she is now 6 months. She still uses them, should she not be? Why? Why can't they continue to use them after 6 months?

Nuk makes a 6+ mo one b/c I have them (from BBB). Not sure the difference. I know that the wubanubs are soothies which are the ones from the hospital and Ive seen 2 yo with them so I think its more of what the baby likes. I was wondering about the 6+ mo because it said orthodontic and my girls arent 6 mo yet. So maybe its better for teeth?

Yeah, they do make different ages/sizes. Not sure the exact reasoning, but I think they might be bigger to accommodate a growing palate, and also they might be a bit harder so that their teeth can't bite through it?

My DD uses the Nuk silicone ones too, and they do make a 6-18 month size. The nipples are bigger. I switched my daughter at 6 months and found that the bigger ones stayed in her mouth better.

i believe the sizing is different. I use the avent ones for my DS and bought a package of the 6-18's and noticed they are a bit bigger.
