Our Colour pacifier is the original BIBS pacifier and has been on the market for over 40 years. It has the signature round BIBS shield with three vent holes and round BIBS engraved handle ring.
The nipple is round and resembles the shape and size of the mother's breast to provide comfort to your baby.
- Available in natural rubber latex.
- Recommended by midwives to support natural breastfeeding.
- Also available in a night version with glow in the dark handle.
- The shield is made of 100% food-safe material. Completely free from BPA, PVC, and phthalates.
- Designed and manufactured in Denmark/EU.
Nipple Information:
The round nipple promotes a similar tongue placement and sucking technique when breastfeeding, since the round shape allows the sides of the tongue to elevate and cup around the nipple, just like it does during breastfeeding.
The nipple is equipped with a valve, letting out air when the baby closes down on the nipple. This ventilation system causes the air from inside the nipple to be pushed out through the valve thereby flattening the nipple to shape naturally after the baby's oral cavity.
The valve is also the reason why water can be presented inside the nipple after cleaning and sterilization. If this is the case, simply just squeeze the nipple flat to press out the excess water. See more Nipple information at the bottom.
Shield Information:
The round lightweight shield faces away from the sensitive and delicate skin around the baby's mouth to ensure minimum contact with the baby's nose and mouth, which means less chance of moisture build-up from saliva that can cause rashes and sore spots.
The shield comes in one size no matter the nipple size.

BIBS Colour Nipple:
Our Colour pacifier is the original BIBS pacifier and has been on the market since 1978. It has the signature round BIBS shield with three vent holes and round BIBS engraved handle ring.
The nipple on our Colour pacifier is a round nipple that resembles the shape and size of the mother’s breast to provide comfort to your baby. Further, the round nipple promotes a similar tongue placement and sucking technique when breastfeeding, since the round shape allows the sides of the tongue to elevate and cup around the nipple, just like it
does during breastfeeding.
The nipple is equipped with a valve, letting out air when the baby closes down on the nipple. This ventilation system causes the air from inside the nipple to be pushed out through the valve thereby flattening the nipple to shape naturally after the baby’s oral cavity. The valve is also the reason why water can be presented inside the nipple after cleaning and sterilization. If this is the case, simply just squeeze the nipple flat to press
out the excess water.
The round lightweight shield is carefully designed to curve away from the sensitive and delicate skin around the baby’s mouth, to ensure minimum contact with the baby’s nose and mouth, which means less chance of moisture build-up from saliva that can cause rashes and sore spots.
The shield comes in one size no matter the nipple size. Also available in a night version with a glow-in-the-dark handle. The nipple is produced from natural rubber latex. Since natural rubber latex is a natural material color variation may occur.
Available in natural rubber latex in sizes 1, 2 and 3.
Why is it Important to Choose the Right Nipple?
Motherhood is an incredible journey and it can often be confusing for new mums to know which products to use at which stage of the baby’s life. We’re here to help you every step of the way.
From birth babies have a natural sucking reflex. It is not only a vital reflex for the baby to get food but sucking also has a calming effect on the baby, reminding the baby of something safe and familiar in an otherwise foreign world. Sucking both lowers the heart rate, blood pressure, and stress levels and it even has a pain-relieving effect. Because of the calming effect sucking entails, a pacifier can make it easier for the baby to sleep, soothe the baby if it is distraught, and provide security when being upset.
When it comes to the nipple no size or shape is right or wrong because all babies are different. It can be necessary to try out different shapes and sizes to find the perfect fit for your child. Some babies prefer a certain nipple shape, size, or material while others do not have any preferences and will take whatever shape, size, and material you offer. Babies have different preferences, different sucking techniques, and different mouth anatomy. Therefore, we offer different pacifiers that meet all these different needs.
Which Size of Pacifier should you Choose:
Babies are different and have different needs and preferences. Try out different shapes and sizes to find the perfect fit for your baby.
It is our experience that the following sizes are the general and therefore also our common recommendation. However, all our sizes can be used from birth. It all comes down to your baby’s preference. It is not dangerous to give a newborn a size 3. However, because most newborns prefer a smaller size, we have made the following recommendations:
- Size 1: 0+ months
- Size 2: 6+ months
- Size 3: 18+ months
- Onesize: 0-3 years
Age and size indications are only a guide for you to follow and that all sizes can be used from when your baby is born.
