MAM offers a range of products designed specifically for hospitals and medical professionals. Aside from our Preemie Pacifiers, these are the same trusted and beloved products that families have trusted in retail outlets nationwide.
As with all MAM products, every item has been developed in collaboration with medical experts.
Approximately 10 % of all babies are born prematurely in modern industrial countries.1 Scientific research has shown that sucking on a pacifier can support babies’ development and well-being.2 In addition, the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) recommends the use of a pacifier to reduce the risk of SIDS (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome).
Their small shield design leaves space for breathing masks and other medical devices and the lightweight nature and small size ensures baby's lip and tongue muscles are not overworked.
The WILD Hi-Precision Institute (Austria) tested and assessed
one-piece full silicone soothers for premature babies, and the
MAM Preemies were by far the lightest soothers in their category.
On average, they are 73,9 %* lighter than other one-piece
full silicone soothers for premature babies. The low weight
eases the burden of holding the soother in mouth.
*Scientific reports from the WILD Hi-Precision Institute (Austria) confirm that the MAM Preemies are on average 73,9% lighter than other one-piece full silicone soothers for premature babies. Measured results: 1,61 g – 11,16 g

MAM Preemies are medical devices (CE) for premature babies and they are only suitable for hospital use. They are intended to compensate for the sucking and swallowing weaknesses in premature babies.
MAM Preemies do not meet the safety standards which are applied to normal soothers namely EN 1400 and 16 CFR 1511. The product poses a choking hazard. Therefore, MAM Preemies must only be used under medical supervision.

To perfectly support the individual development of babies, medical experts and designers have developed MAM bottles to meet the needs of both children and parents. Babies learn the transition from breastfeeding to drinking from a cup step by step.
MAM nipple shields provide protection for mom's sore nipples during breastfeeding. Nipple Shields have a very thin natural SkinSoft™ Silicone surface which allows for maximum skin contact and are available in three sizes.
The MAM Nipple with SkinSoft™ silicone surface makes drinking from a bottle so familiar for babies.
Additionally, our nipples fit all MAM Bottles and the Trainer+.
Baby approved: 94% of babies accept the MAM Nipple with SkinSoft™ surface.*
