To use a pacifier or not to use a pacifier? That’s the question we parents ask ourselves when our babies seem inconsolable no matter what we do! The good news is that according to the Academy of General Dentistry children can safely use a pacifier up unto the age of two.

Another benefit comes from the American Academy of Family Physicians stating that children under one year old who use a pacifier significantly reduce the risk of sudden infant death syndrome. So if you’re deciding whether to use a pacifier consider using the Natural Round Pacifier made from pure rubber from the rubber tree Hevea brasiliensi.

The Natural Round Pacifier by Oscar & Belle does not contain any allergy causing substances, no artificial color or cancer causing substances, or chemical softeners. The design follows the natural mouth movements of the baby and does not leave marks on the baby’s face.

The Natural Round Pacifer can be viewed and purchased at the Oscar & Belle, Inc. website at oscarandbelle.com. Price: $7.95.

What sets this knit suit by Oscar & Belle apart from other similar products is that it is made from hand-harvested organic cotton. Which means that the cotton was grown with natural fertilizers and is free from toxic chemicals - ideal for baby’s sensitive skin!

If I had to decide between this 100% organic fiber knit suit and just any other similar item the deciding factor would be the added safety and wellness for my child. Great for summer wear, this feather weight jumper is priced at $88 at the Oscar & Belle, Inc website, oscarandbelle.com.
