Nate is showing his very picky side on binkies. Im looking for Gerber nuk genius binkies. I have checked all the local stores and they dont have them anymore. Im looking for 6-12M or 6-18M whatever the size happens to be. These are what im looking for.

DD took those and loved them too. Makes me miss our pappy days.

Looks like this is pretty cheap on-line. http://www.babyearth.com/nuk-genius...?att_val=341&gclid=CKvR-IzwlK4CFU2b7QodLnoFJg

On amazon they're $10 for 1!

I think I have 2 but I'll have to check size. Bella likes nuks but wouldn't do the genius ones. I'll check our stores too I'm pretty sure I saw some recently.

Doesn't NUK realize what they are doing to us? LOL
My kid still uses a Binkie *sigh, not a battle I want to fight right now*, anyway I can't find size 3 Classics anymore and she doesn't like the new ones (different shape)
I'm going to BBB tomorrow to see if they have any, I can look for the Genius ones as well!

Not to de-rail, but I went in to our new BBB not long after we broke DD of the pappy. Well, I needed sippy valve replacements. Want to know what aisle they were on? The pappy section. I laughed so hard at DD's reaction to the "wall" of pappys! LOL I have never seen so many pappys in one place!

DD used to only take Genius ones. I found them only at BRU and Amazon.

I had totally forgot to check this. I got some originals of the nuk and he hates them. He will take them but is not happy about it and lets me know too.

Tiffany- Some of my phone numbers didnt transfer when I got my new phone.

3.39 at Amazon. It says "girl colors," but who cares? [ame="http://www.amazon.com/Gerber-Genius-Silicone-Pacifier-months/dp/B0036F7QU8"]Amazon.com: NUK Gerber Genius Silicone BPA Free Pacifier 0-6 months girl colors: Baby[/ame]

4.99 at Toys R Us. http://www.toysrus.com/product/index.jsp?productId=3987647&CAWELAID=473537143



So what is the difference between the Genius and the regular? I know the shield looks different, but I doubt Nate knows that yet. Is the nipple different?

Slightly different. Very similar but enough for a picky baby to know the difference.

It is a much softer silicone flatter as well. I bought some regulars and he wasn't happy with them. In fact he would spit them out and cry till I found the others.

Checked Publix yesterday and they only had bigger sizes, but went to BBB today and they have them. For the outrageous price of $4.99 PER binkie.
I thought you could probably get a better deal online, but if you want me to pick up a few and mail them just let me know!

I think that's standard price. I have never seen them lower.

My BRU had a rack for them, but it was empty. Let me know if Tiffany doesn't find them. I'll check back again before I come next week.
