Can't Find My Daughter's Favorite Paci at Any Store! HELP!

My daughter only likes the Gerber soft center pacifiers. You know, the ones that the nipple is sort or in the shape of a light bulb? I have looked EVERYWHERE and I can't seem to find anymore of them ANYWHERE! I have found the smaller size very easily, but the only one she will take is the larger sized nipple. Does anyone know what I'm talking about and if so, where can I find those little treasures? We are down to our very last one! Help! I would take this chance as to try and break her from a paci all together, however, she still tries to suck on her thumb once in awhile and I am going to wait until she's past that. If anyone could let me know I would really appreciate it!

*I have googled them but it's really hard to tell on a computer if it's the larger size nipple.

What can I do next?

Is it the Gerber Gentle Flex? Not sure which paci you're talking about for sure, but try eBay or Amazon. Try searching for size 2 or 6 months+ to find a bigger size nipple. It looks like they may have been discontinued, so you may be paying a bundle for them if you find them. When searching for the Soft Center Pacis, I saw 'newborn' size and also '0months+' size... I wonder if they are the same or different??
Good luck to you!

I feel your pain. Have you tried to search the Internet? Maybe there was a recall on them. It sounds like you may need to transition to another pacifier. My daughter is stuck on the hospital pacifiers. She won't take any other one; however, if she is desperate and I don't have one available for some reason she can be soothed with another brand. Maybe after a few days of not having that brand she will get used to another. So sorry! Good luck!

I don't know where you can find them for sure, unfortunately, but being that my son is also a big paci fan ( ;-) ) here is what I would do. I would call all the places that I see online and ask them if they have any information on the size of nipple on the paci's you see on their site. I would hope that they have detailed info that they can share. I am sure you have tried places like Babies R Us, but maybe you could also ask them if they know what you are looking for and if they have any way of ordering the larger size for you. I am sorry you are in a bind!!! I know I would be panicked too!! Good luck!!

I can only imagine what you found googling large size nipple! lol.

Anyways, try www.diapers.com. They've got tons of baby stuff!! I looked under gerber and only found the little half bulb looking ones...not sure...but are you sure it's gerber? You know Sassy has those 'light bulb' looking ones...are those it?

Hope this helps.
Thanks-K.

Burlington Coat Factory always has a big selection of pacifiers. They helped us with our first child who only took a specific pacifier...
Good Luck!
