Dropping the pacifier?

Question

when my baby drops her pacifier, which is the best way to clean it for the next use?

Answer 1

Let's be honest here people - especially parents of more than 1 kid - how many of us actually "boil them" or run them under water.  The shirt works or so does your mouth.  Babies are going to get exposure to germs no matter what you do.  For God's sake - most of them pick their nose and eat Cheerios off the floor when you're not looking!

Answer 2

i would run it under hot water or if you are not near running water just pour water over it..

Answer 3

rinse/soak hot water -sit to dry, but you should have a few extras laying around...

one paccy isnt enough.

Answer 4

As long as it looks okay, I don't clean it.  I figure he needs some exposure to germs.  By about four months, he'll start sticking anything he can find in his mouth anyway.  It's hard to keep everything clean!

Answer 5

I used my mouth or a wet wipe. If it drops in something dangerous wash it with hot water and soap. Carry an extra one in case you are not near hot water and soap.

Answer 6

Once a child drops it - they do NOT want it anymore!

Make sure the baby has a full tummy and satisfied - then you can toss them in the garbage (where they belong).

Answer 7

You can boil it in water over the stove...that always works!!!

Answer 8

If you're at home just rinse it off. If you're out and there isn't water available then just pop it your mouth.

Answer 9

First you need more then one on hand and when you go out take a extra one with you. I would say boil it first and let it cool.

But....

after having 3 kids just pop it in the mouth and it will be fine. My kids are still alive and doing fine.

Answer 10

your mouth...take one for the team daddy-o!

Answer 11

Pampers makes a clean up spray that you can keep in your daiper bag or you can clean it off with a baby wipe....it's a little more hygenic than popping it in your mouth!
