The Natural Rubber Soother Large Rounded dummy is moulded from a single piece of 100% pure natural rubber, tapped from the sap of the Hevea brasiliensis tree. The round teat holds the tongue in the same position as breastfeeding, which is why midwives often suggest starting babies on a rounded shape. Because it's made in one piece there are no joins or cracks where bacteria can hide, and the larger shield sits against baby's nose for a closer feel to breastfeeding. Free from BPA, parabens, PVC, phthalates and chemical softeners, and biodegradable at the end of its life. Suitable from 6 months and over. Twin pack with a reusable case for hygienic storage.
