Don’t know why but for some reason by looking at the packaging I thought this comes with syringe but doesn’t. Anyway not a big issue , product itself does the job and saves me and my baby stress as works great .
Good quality and very practical for giving babies medication without upsetting the baby, so easy to give them their medication when needed. Great product and great innovation fir new mums.
Very good product,good quality easy to use and fulfills it’s purpose. Only down size is that you can attach only 1 ml seringe and if the quantity of the fluid is 10 ml that you have to give the baby it takes a lot of time and the baby might get agitated in the process. But I might say it’s a must in the house
Got this for my little one who is exclusively breastfed and won’t take a bottle so giving her the Gaviscon for reflux had been an absolute nightmare. She would knock a spoon out of my hand and would spit out whatever I’d give her in a syringe. With this, I fitted the syringe into the dummy and it was really easy to aim in towards her cheek and give her the medication. Worked really well and she took her medicine with no fuss at all. I’ve only given it four stars as it would’ve been better if it came with a syringe too. Luckily I had some at home.
Our 3 week old baby has been prescribed gaviscon for terrible reflux and we were told to administer using a spoon or syringe. The spoon was an immediate non-starter so we ended up using the syringe but he spits half of it out and doesn’t swallow. We’ve used this twice now and he swallows nearly all of the medication now.
My 4 month old had a course of antibiotics and the Frida gadget made administration so much easier. No medicine was wasted and my baby was a lot happier taking it. A great design. Highly recommend as without it medicine got wasted and my little one was very agitated.
We had tried a few different ways to get our 7 week old baby to take her medicine, but she kept rejecting it. Waiting until she was due her feed and using this dummy was a life saver. She sucks it up herself and keeps it all in. 100% recommend.
This is just great. Seems a bit pricey for what it is initially but I cannot stress how much use it gets already.
Admittedly, we were getting along just fine giving The Goblin (said with much love) gripe water and infacol just with a syringe/dropper but is was a VERY messy affair, and would always need to offer a dummy after to make sure it had all been swallowed.
Less mess, less fuss. And, if you’re a new parent and afraid of accidentally harming baby’s soft palate (you likely wouldn’t but the fear is real), more parental confidence.
Has a stopper so it doubles as an actual dummy if needed.
This gets used at least with every feed and then cleaned and chucked in a basin of Milton afterwards. I tend to use a colostrum syringe to draw the Milton up into the teat to be good and thorough
Cons: a little bulky, teat could have a more ergonomic shape but The Goblin doesn’t seem to have any issues latching on it.
All in all, I’m buying at least another one if not two.
This is fantastic. My 8 week old is on anti colic medication and they gave now doubled the dose. At first she was enjoying the meds, now she won’t stop spitting it out. This little dummy is wonderful. I pop the dummy into her mouth, let her suck on it then slowly squirt the medication through the syringe. A little tip is to try it with water in the air first so you realise how quickly it comes out the end. I did this and ended up getting the kitchen window!! It goes quite far if you press to quick. Also make sure the syringe part is at the top of the dummy so it goes down the back of the babies throat and not down the sides or along the the tongue where they can taste it.
I’m able to give this on my own now and my husband even did it on his own this morning to! Wonderful I’ve told all my fiends about it to.
I’ve never written a review for anything on Amazon but I feel compelled to write this one. I’ve just used it for the first time with a strong peppermint flavoured medicine that my two month old usually screams the house down and gags and chokes on. This allowed me to give it to her in very small doses whilst keeping the soother in her mouth. She basically took it whilst falling asleep and I just massaged her cheek to get her to swallow. I usually only manage to get her to take half the recommended dose but for the first time she’s just had the full dose with ease and far less time! Honestly an absolute game changer! 100% would recommend and I’m gutted I have only now considered using it!
The product itself is great. But why can’t they include a syringe? The box is massive compared to the product, it’s so much waste. Waste of space, waste of plastic. I am still shocked that they couldn’t provide the syringe with it for 7 pounds??
