Avik’s First Friend : Soothie Snuggle
Today I am going to talk about a brand that you know very well and need no introduction . If you are in USA then you will know that every healthcare professional trust this brand for newborns. No more mystery here , I am talking about Philips Avent Soothie. It is every baby’s first friend and In my story, Avik’s First Friend is also Philips Avent Soothie Sunggle. Philips Avent Soothie snuggle is the superior plush toy and pacifier.
I still remember when I delivered him and the doctors handed him to me. I was shivering due to anesthesia but felt so calm after holding him. That feeling of calmness is all I wish for my baby to feel. But then there are moments of discomfort and I learnt this in hospital where doctors and nurses told me about pacifier and gave Avik his first one, the Philips Avent Soothie. Trusted by healthcare professionals to calm newborns, Soothies are distributed in hospitals in the USA. That was the day and now, he is 11 months old and loves his Soothie Snuggle which is a plush toy with Soothie. Avik loves the cute plush toy attached to his Soothie which makes him feel secure too.
I personally love the Philips Avent Soothie Sunggle. Totally a Mom approved product for their babies. If you ask me why, well there are so many reasons. First it is BPA-Free, Orthodontic, made with flexible medical grade silicone and 100% durable. It is safe to be used from day 0 of your baby. Plush toy is an easy attachment that is lightweight, easy to find and hold. Sealed weight sewn inside the end of each limb stabilizes the plush toy when baby is lying down. Soothie and Plush toy can be detached for easy cleaning.
The Soothie snuggle is easy to clean and sanitize, both the pacifier and toy thoroughly, because the parts detach. It also allows baby’s first friend to grow with them over time. Cleaning the toy and soothie is very easy and can be done in following way :
1. To start, detach the Soothie pacifier from the Snuggle
2. Sterilize the Soothie either in a Philips Avent Steam Sterilizer bag (I use these) or in boiling water for 5 minutes.
3. After sterilizing, allow the Soothie to cool for at least 5 minutes and squeeze any trapped water out of the nipple.
4. You can wash the plush toy in a mesh laundry bag with your normal laundry cycle. Set it out to air dry.
5. Once you’ve cleaned both parts of the Soothie snuggle you can connect them back together and give the pacifier to your baby.
I always check the product before each use and replace the pacifiers in case of damage or weakness. Philips Avent recommends replacing your baby’s pacifier after four weeks of use. The plush toy is compatible with all Philips Avent Soothies and pacifiers which can be swapped out and replaced with age appropriate soothies as baby ages. Philips Avent Soothies are designed for babies 0-3 months and 3+ month, and other Philips Avent pacifiers are designed for babies 0-6m, 6-18m and 18+ months. Once your child outgrows pacifiers altogether, his or her snuggly friend can still stick around and conveniently attach to car seats, strollers, or backpacks. Avik is so fond of his sunggle giraffe and plays with it all the time. I love how connected he is with his Soothie Sunggle.
A good friend for our tiny one is all we moms want so that they feel secure. I have found that friend in Philips Avent Soothie Sunggle. I totally recommend this to all my mommy friends just like all healthcare professionals do. You can read more about the product HERE
