Frida Baby Silicone Paci Weaning System, BPA Free, Latex Free

Great product. Worked exactly as it said on our 2.5 year old! He was addicted. Can’t recommend highly enough as he was done with it in about a week.

I'm gonna be honest, I really was not sure about these. I have a three year old and a one and a half year old. My three year old was ATTACHED to her binky. I tried many different things from the binky fairy to cutting the tips of the binky off to cold turkeying it. Nothing worked with my three year old, and with it being hard to get her off of it, it made it that much more difficult with my one and a half year old. The first thing I did was get them binkies that had more of an alike shape to these weaning ones. I knew if I tried switching from their mam binkies, it never would have worked. The hardest out of all the numbers wasn't even them, it was switching to the binky with an alike nipple. I switched each one while they were asleep, so it was already in their mouths when they woke up. My daughter was very upset about the change in nipple shape, I mean screaming, crying, calling out for her old binky. Without even thinking, I somehow came up with the story that binky was going through growth spurts like she does. With that, she decided to give the new shape a try. I kept them on that binky for two weeks before trying the weaning kit. When I switched to number one, both didn't even notice at first until midday I heard my daughter holler, "binky changed colors!!" I got all excited for her and said, "Oh my gosh! Binky had another growth spurt!!" It kept the experience optimistic for her and something to look forward to. We kept them on number one for two weeks and then I made the change to number two. It was the same experience again, they did not notice until about midday and then I'd hear the excited, "Binky changed colors again!! Yay!!" However, I made the switch every three days instead to avoid them getting too used to that number. As we got to number 3, I noticed both my kids barely asking for binky. It was really only desired for sleep time and if they were super upset. They even would fall asleep for nap time without them. My one and a half year old gave binky up at number 4, saying, "Eww!!" when I tried to give him binky. I still switched binky to number 5 for both, so to my daughter it appeared that both were still having growth spurts. Switching to 5 for my three year old was hard, but it was a bittersweet moment. She came to me in the middle of the night upset that she couldn't hold binky in her mouth anymore. I told her that binky was finally all grown up, and we should celebrate. The next day we had cookies in celebration. She still asked for binky for a couple of days, and we allowed her to carry number 5 around to reassure her that binky was all grown up. Eventually (within two days), she stopped asking for it and I discreetly put it away for good. She did not ask about binky again until a week later. I reminded her that binky was all grown up and off to bigger and more exciting things in life. That answer seemed to please her and she has been good for a month now. I never thought we would get her weaned off, but honestly these worked magic, especially with our fun little story to them. I will forever recommend these to anybody.

This worked great for our 17 month old that was very fond of using her paci, especially at bedtime. Previously she exclusively used the MAM Original pacifier. She didn't seem thrilled at first, but we stuck to switching every 2 days consistently and now she is using level 5 (the last one) just for initially laying down in her crib. Since there is no issue with her using level 5, we have no pressure or rush to take it away from her...and hope that she will eventually just stop using it all together. Highly recommend this product! (And everything else from Frida)

Was desperate to find something that helped wean my 2 year old off the paci, I had already tried cutting them and going cold turkey did not work for us, this gradually helped her ease back and in Two weeks was completely off the paci. Four stars due to the price but was totally worth it after getting results.

Okay.. we’ve been DREADING losing the binky. We tried cold turkey 3 times & we tried making our own holes (pain in the butt to puncture it the right amount). My 2 year old doesn’t give 2 craps about a “binky fairy”. In fear for messing up her teeth, wanting her to learn self soothing, tired of making sure we have a binky everywhere, you name it. I bought this on a whim out of desperation. I wish I would’ve done this a year ago!! I was losing hope with our daughter’s resilience and attachment to a bink. Day 1: she was mad about it for sure, took her about an hour or so to finally fall asleep after some tantrums, multiple night wakings for the next few days. By day 3, we moved to step 2. Night wakings slowed by day 4. Day 6: moved to step 3. No wake-up in the night. We are now day 7 & I realized she hasn’t asked for one the past couple of days. I took the opportunity to try step 4, which seemed like a more dramatic shift. She wasn’t happy and cried on/off for about 10 min. She ended up falling asleep with it just in her hand. I see the light at the end of the tunnel. The directions say for 1-2 days but knowing our kiddo we started with 3 days. I tried to not go past that because I didn’t want her getting too used to it before we shifted to the next step. HIGHLY RECOMMEND BUT PLEASE PREPARE THAT THERE STILL WILL BE A STRUGGLE WITH SOME KIDDOS. STAY STRONG, PATIENT, AND CONSISTENT.

If you have a Paci Addict read this carefully... BUY 👏🏻 THIS 👏🏻 WEANING 👏🏻 SYSTEM 👏🏻 I cannot LOVE this product enough! It was literally a game changer for us. My LO was born prematurely resulting in NICU time. Now my original birth plan obviously didn’t include this and my care plan was strictly NO PACIFIERS! 🙅🏼‍♀️ However, when your child is in the NICU you do have to leave occasionally to eat & shower etc. so while I was gone she needed to “pacify” herself. After a discussion with her care team it was decided that a pacifier would be a positive for her, so I consented to allowing the staff to giving her one as needed. As her 1st year progressed she had multiple surgeries and drs appts so the paci became a staple in her comforting & soothing routine. Every test, blood draw, surgery, hospital stay, you name it, she had 3 at all times! One to use and one for each hand! Fast forward 3 years and they’re effecting the symmetry of her teeth and her bite so they’ve got to go! As attached as she was, it was no surprise that every effort I made ended in screaming, crying and stressed to the max. Given her reasoning for being so attached to them I knew going cold turkey could be traumatic doing more harm than good emotionally if I were to just make her safety net disappear one day. So I started digging even deeper into SAFE weaning methods, each one failing. I had read that snipping the ends of pacifiers gradually had worked for many mamas however that just didn’t sit right with me as cutting the paci disrupts the integrity of silicone posing a health and safety risk for your baby. So I wanted to find something equivalent to that method only safer! Just when I was about to say “screw it, I’ll just start saving now for braces” I stumbled across this product and figured for $20 I wouldn’t be too heartbroken if it didn’t work.... YALL!!! She didn’t even complete the steps before she was making the decision on her own to not need her “Pie” (that’s what she called them 🥰) I honestly couldn’t believe what was happening! I waited a few months to write a review to make sure it stuck and it has! Every once in awhile she’ll ask for a paci and we just remind her she’s a big girl now and doesn’t need them anymore and she’s totally fine and accepting of that answer and just continues on with what she was doing previously! I truly believe it’s because this weaning system made it her choice to not want them thus giving her the power of the decision and not feeling like something was just taken from her.

I think this method works but I dont see any difference to manually cutting your existing pacis. We ended up not using past the first stage because my son was not attached to these new pacis so in the end I just had to cut his actually pacis that he is attached to and was always using. That worked as well and he was done with his pacis in 2 days.

Our 2 1/2 year old began getting more attached to his binky instead of less attached so I decided it was time to intervene. I decided to give these a try and was shocked how quickly it worked. We only made it to step 1 when he decided he didn’t want it. He knew right away something wasn’t right but moved on quickly. If your like me & know your child will cry and cry for their binky and don’t have the heart to take it from them i really recommend trying these! I felt better about it because it was his decision if he wanted it or not. Only reason im giving 4 stars and not 5 is because they’re basically just binkys that are cut shorter and shorter so for the price im sure you could make your own at home. Although this option is probably safer but wanted to note that anyways. We’re now on day 3 of no binky and he stopped asking for it all together. I’m shocked because 500 times a day he would beg me for his regular one before giving him this instead. If you’re on the fence just go for it! Much cheaper than braces in the long run.

Did the job even it was a different shape of dummy, just had to get used to the number 1 longer. Stretched changing time to 3-4 days and took us about 2 weeks overall, number 5 wasn’t needed after all

Super Produkt. Uns hat geholfen in 5 Tage das Schnuller weg zu lassen.

Ça a totalement fonctionné sur mon fils de 17 mois pour l'arrêt définitif de la tutute en 10 jours. Tous les 2 jours je passais à l'étape suivante. 2 jours de tutute numéro 5, j'ai essayé la 1ere sieste sans rien : un succès ! J'ai donc tenté toute une nuit sans tutute : un succès également !!! Ça fait maintenant 5 jours consécutifs qu'il n'a pas eu une seule tutute en bouche. Je suis ravie et je recommande ce kit 🤩 dommage qu'il ne soit pas assez connu en France.

Worked with my toddler

Just sharing my experience with this product. It may not be the same for everyone but worth a try. Upon the advice of my SIL, I had reluctantly got my son onto the pacifier since he had a short NICU stay after birth (my other kids didn't take pacifier). When he turned 2 years old, I could see his upper front teeth getting damaged due to the pacifier usage. Day and night. My first attempt using this product was at his age of 2, but he threw massive fits (including banging his head on mine or the walls), so I couldn't continue then. However, at the age of 2.5, I tried it again after speaking to him that the pacifier is not a good thing and is meant for little babies. It's been 3 days now and we've used only the first pacifier marked 1. My son has already given up using it during the day and last night (the 3rd night of using this), we didn't use any pacifier even from the weaning set. Although he asked for it once, but with cuddles and rocking he quickly calmed down and went back to sleep. So, for us it worked when the timing was right. Thank you Frida Baby.
