The Acofarbaby soother is an infant implement made up of three parts (teat, ring and anchorage). The assembly of these parts offers a high level of safety, as it reduces the risk of the baby sucking completely on the product and suffocating.
The teat is the area that has direct contact with the mouth. It is made of 100% natural latex, a material that is very resistant and elastic. It is characterised by absorbing liquid and retaining odours, which is why it is recommended to replace the soother at least every month and a half.
It has an anatomical shape that resembles the mother's nipple and is perforated to allow air circulation and adapt to the position of the child's tongue. It provides comfort and minimises discomfort associated with hiccups or colic.
The anchor serves to attach the teat to the shield, while the ring is used to hold the soother, protect it from dirt and keep it close at hand when needed. As a special tip, it is recommended to use only soother holders, chains or clips that comply with the safety standards required by the health authorities.
It is recommended for children from 6 to 12 months, as it provides a high level of bite resistance. It favours the formation and growth of teeth, without deforming the dentition. It helps to calm the baby's crying and helps him to fall asleep.
It is also very useful when the mother does not breastfeed the baby, as it already reduces the possibility of sudden infant death. According to experts in infant medicine, this phenomenon can be minimised when the baby sucks regularly.
For all these benefits, it is common for mothers to resort to the product to pacify and entertain the baby. However, the causes of restlessness should be explored, making sure that they are not caused by hunger or a wet nappy.
