Dr. Brown's HappyPaci
4.835,071 ratings
The bulb is the same shape as Dr. Brown's bottle nipple, so a bottle-fed baby takes it without the usual week of rejection. One piece of silicone, so there's no seam to trap milk.

Also worth your money — where we'd turn if the top pick is sold out or over budget.
NUK Timeless Comfy Pacifier
4.619,466 ratings
A breast-like nipple shape sized specifically for newborns, which is what stops a breastfed baby spitting it straight back out.
Nanobebe Baby Pacifier
4.532,909 ratings
Curved to sit flat against the face contour instead of sticking straight out, so it stays in when they turn their head into you.
Frida Baby Medicine Pacifier
4.822,913 ratings
A pacifier with a syringe through it, so liquid goes past the tastebuds to the side of the cheek while they suck. Turns the worst two minutes of a sick day into ten seconds.
Smily Mia Penguin Hand Teether
4.732,785 ratings
The soft silicone hand teether lets babies hold and pull it themselves, massaging sore gums while satisfying the sucking reflex. The attached mitten keeps it in place so it doesn't end up on the floor, and it doubles as a pacifier alternative for babies who reject standard binkies.
Philips Avent Soothie Snuggle
4.822,029 ratings
The plush elephant is attached to the pacifier so it does not vanish into the couch cushions or the diaper bag. It uses the Soothie pacifier, the same one hospitals hand out for newborns, so there is no adjustment period.
Philips Avent Soothie Pacifier
4.821,085 ratings
This is the one-piece pacifier made entirely of medical grade silicone, so there is no seam for bacteria to hide in and it can go through a sterilizer or a boil without worry. It is built for newborns still working out their suckling reflex, and the round, symmetrical nipple is designed to sit gently in baby's mouth without pressing the tongue against the mouth.
MAM Original Start Pacifier
4.717,469 ratings
Made with orthodontists and pediatric dentists, this pacifier has a thin, breast-like nipple designed to feel familiar to a newborn, with a 94% acceptance rate reported for its symmetrical shape. The smaller curved shield is built for tiny faces, leaving room for little noses to breathe easily.
Philips Avent Soothie Pacifier 0-3mth
4.723,466 ratings
This is the same pacifier handed to families in hospitals nationwide, made of hospital grade silicone, and it comes at the lowest price point in this lineup. If you want the exact one nurses use, without paying more for extras, this is it.
RaZbaby JollyPop Pacifier with RaZbuddy Dragon
4.620,280 ratings
This one pairs a medical-grade, one-piece pacifier with a soft detachable stuffed animal, so it doubles as baby's first plush toy and a paci they can actually hold onto. The one-piece silicone design also cuts down on choking risk since there are no separate parts to come loose.
RaZbaby Sloth RaZbuddy Pacifier Holder
4.620,280 ratings
This one pairs a NICU-used JollyPop pacifier with a soft sloth plush your baby can hold onto, so the pacifier is less likely to end up on the floor. The pacifier detaches, so you can swap in a different pacifier or teether once your baby has a preference.
BIBS Colour Collection Pacifier
4.616,667 ratings
If you want a pacifier with a simple, timeless shape made from natural rubber rather than silicone, this is the one to try. Its shape and soft material are designed to mimic mom, which is part of why it has a strong track record of babies actually taking to it.
