The MAM Original Pure Soother is designed to prevent swallowing and can handle such events. If it becomes lodged, remove it gently and calmly. Always supervise your baby during soother use to ensure safety.
Can I attach the soother to a ribbon or cord?
Only use dedicated soother holders that have been tested to EN 12586 standards. Never attach other ribbons or cords to the soother, as this can pose a strangulation risk to your child.
