Dummy brands

My breastfed newborn currently takes a 0-2 month mam dummy as it helps with acid reflux.
Wanted to know if there are any supermarket own brands that do similar teat dummies.
Also do we size up as she grows older?
Not experienced with dummies as my first DC didn't take one 😅

Stick with one which does glow in the dark so when they get bigger they can find it in the cot by themsleves.

Both my breastfed babies would only accept the small mam (refused as I bought ones to correlate with age) or NUK, which is not supermarket but I got on Amazon. The NUK ones were their preferred ones. However they both self weaned from dummy at 4 months and 6 months so I wouldn’t buy loads just yet, I only ever had 4 for each baby - 2 in bag, 2 in house. The NUK ones come in a pack of 2 with a case which doubles as a mini microwave sterilised for them. Other brands may do this - I’ve just not tried them.

We never found a cheaper dupe for the Mam dummy.

If you go to one of the baby & toddler shows (usually free tickets floating around on social media) that Mam go to you can generally buy them at a (slightly) cheaper price.

You do size up as they grow.
