“As feeding therapists we have pretty strict standards for a pacifier. The most important factor is shape. Babies need a round cylinder shape to support strong suck skills. The wider base of the Lee Lee and Me Paci, plus the gradual slope are also perfect! This shape will help baby transfer suck skills back to the bottle or breast. Flat pacifiers keep the tongue low and flat which is the opposite of what baby needs for strong oral motor development! Round is the way to go.”

"As a speech-Language Pathologist, Certified Orofacial Myologist, and international Board Certified Lactation Consultant, I'm really critical of the artifical nipples, teething toys, etc that are out there. The Lee Lee and Me Paci is a great choice! The gradual slope of the nipple is more like the breast and encourages a positive latch to go back and forth between breast and bottle and to avoid some of that oral confusion/preferance."

"I like the Lee Lee and Me Paci! It has a nice round shape and promotes that wide, deep latch. The base is much bigger for baby to grab on to. It promotes that nice flanged lip and a deep latch.

Pacifiers are great when:
•Baby is crying and you can’t physically get to the baby, like in the car or when your toddler needs their butt wiped.
•You’ve finished breastfeeding and baby wants to suck to transition to sleep.
•Baby has reflux. Sucking without swallowing more milk can help baby rest and digest after feeding.
•When baby had been cluster feeding, witching hour freaking out, inconsolable and you’re about lose your mind and you just need a break."

“I love the Leelee & Me for its therapeutic benefits for baby’s with feeding challenges. The shape supports optimal oral motor skills for sucking, while the length supports a deep latch, and the wide base promotes a wide open mouth for latching. These are all important features for a breastfed baby!”
