Quick answer
A glow in the dark soother makes it easy to find the pacifier in a dark nursery without turning on lights, which can disturb your baby's sleep. The Dr Brown's Advantage Glow in the Dark Soother is designed with a fully symmetrical bulb that fits naturally in your baby's mouth.
Why glow in the dark helps at night
When your baby wakes and needs their pacifier, fumbling in the dark or turning on a light can fully wake them. A glow in the dark soother gives off a soft, gentle glow that helps you locate it quickly without disrupting the sleep environment. This is especially useful for middle-of-the-night soothing or when the soother falls out of the crib.
Safety and material considerations
Glow in the dark soothers use a non-toxic phosphorescent material that charges under light and emits a soft glow in darkness. The Dr Brown's Advantage Glow in the Dark Soother is made from 100% silicone, which is both soft and durable, and the bulb is fully symmetrical and reversible, so it fits correctly no matter which way your baby puts it in their mouth. Always check that the soother is intact and free from cracks or damage before each use.
Frequently asked questions
How does the glow in the dark feature work?
The soother absorbs light during the day or when exposed to a lamp. After a few minutes of charging, it will emit a soft glow for several hours in the dark. Place it near a light source before bedtime to ensure it glows when needed. Charge the soother by exposing it to light for a few minutes before putting your baby to bed.
Can I use a glow in the dark soother for daytime naps?
Yes, the glow in the dark feature works best in low light, but the soother itself is designed for all-day use. The silicone bulb and symmetrical shape are the same as non-glow versions, so it's suitable for daytime and nighttime soothing.
How do I clean a glow in the dark soother?
Clean the soother before first use and regularly afterward by washing it in warm, soapy water and rinsing thoroughly. You can also sterilize it using a steam sterilizer or boiling water for 5 minutes. The glow feature is not affected by proper cleaning. Always inspect the soother for wear and replace it every 2 months or sooner if damaged.
