Why Pacifier Clips Aren’t the Solution—And What to Use Instead
Ditch the unsafe pacifier clip! The Ingy Bingy Band is the ultimate pacifier wristband that keeps your baby's pacifier secure without the risks. Learn why it's the best solution for infants.
If your infant pacifier keeps falling out, you might be tempted to grab a pacifier clip to keep it close. But before you do, let’s talk about the hidden dangers of pacifier clips—and why the Ingy Bingy Band is a much safer and more effective alternative.
The Problem with Pacifier Clips
Pacifier clips have been a go-to for parents trying to keep track of their baby’s newborn pacifier, but they come with some serious risks.
1. Strangulation Hazard
Most pacifier clips attach to a baby’s clothing with a long strap, creating a strangulation risk—especially when a baby is sleeping or rolling over. The American Academy of Pediatrics advises against using anything around a baby’s neck or chest that could get wrapped around them.
2. Choking Risk
Many pacifier clips have small plastic or metal parts that can break off, posing a choking hazard. If a clip loosens or detaches, it becomes a dangerous object in a baby’s environment.
3. Can Still Get Lost
Even though a pacifier clip keeps the pacifier attached to clothing, babies can still pull it off, leaving parents back at square one.
The Better Alternative: The Ingy Bingy Band
So, if pacifier clips aren’t safe, what is? The Ingy Bingy Band is a pacifier wristband that securely attaches a newborn pacifier to your baby’s wrist with soft, adjustable Velcro. It eliminates the dangers of pacifier clips while keeping the pacifier easily accessible for your baby.
