Why your baby cries so much in the evening – and what many parents misjudge about colic - How two young founders found the solution that parents have been searching for so long.

“My heart stopped for a moment.”

Paul is not a typical founder – he is a father.
“My son cried every evening,” he recounts. “We didn’t know why – nothing really helped.”

Many parents experience exactly that. The baby is fed, changed, carried – and still restless.
Especially in the evenings, it seems unable to calm down.

Quickly, the term comes up: colic.

 

What many don’t know:
It often has to do with sucking.

Babies are not only fed out of hunger but also for comfort. In the process, they can swallow air – which puts additional strain on the belly.

👉 The result: more restlessness, more crying, difficulty falling asleep. At the same time, babies have a strong need to suck – regardless of food.

But here lies a frequently overlooked point:

👉 Not every form of comfort really helps.

For Paul, it was clear: This has to get better.

With Nuckly, an approach was developed that separates sucking from feeding –
so that babies can calm down without putting additional strain on their bellies.

 

Because in the end, it’s not just about less crying.
It’s about your baby finally finding peace.

Why colic is so difficult to relieve – and many solutions don't really help

Extended breastfeeding for calming

Many parents automatically turn to breastfeeding to soothe their baby.
However, often more air is swallowed – which puts additional strain on the stomach.

 

👉 The problem: Instead of relief, often even more restlessness occurs.

2. Countless tips – but no clear solution

From belly massages to drops to home remedies – the selection is vast.
But much helps only temporarily or not at all.

 

👉 The problem: Parents try everything – without any real improvement.

3. Missing Alternative for Soothing

Babies have a strong need to suck – even without hunger.
If a suitable option is missing, they will be breastfed repeatedly.

 

👉 The problem: The stomach is additionally burdened instead of relieved.

The idea behind the Nuckly NatureSense and what makes it so special.

When Paul and Dustin recognized these problems, it was clear: A baby product should not look like this.
Their goal was not just a new pacifier – but a solution that truly helps babies calm down.

 

Because they understood:
Many babies seek not only nourishment while breastfeeding but above all comfort.

After numerous prototypes, discussions with experts, and intensive testing, the Nuckly NatureSense was finally created – a pacifier that is based on natural sucking behavior.

 

“We wanted to develop something that calms babies without putting additional strain on their stomachs,” Paul explains.
“An alternative to breastfeeding – when it’s not about hunger, but about calming down.”

A pacifier that feels natural, works gently, and supports exactly where many parents reach their limits.

No more stomach aches!

“Our baby struggled with stomach pain and colic every evening. No matter what we tried – nothing really helped.

We noticed that he often just wanted to calm down while breastfeeding and swallowed even more air in the process.

Since we started using Nuckly, everything has become much more relaxed. He settles down faster, cries less, and seems overall much more balanced.

You can immediately tell that he is now calmed down without putting additional strain on his stomach.

For us, it’s a huge difference – finally quieter evenings!”

Finally peaceful nights!   

"Our little Jonas had great trouble falling asleep and often woke up crying in the middle of the night. We tried many pacifiers, but none could really calm him down. Then we tested the Nuckly – and what can I say? Since then, he falls asleep much faster and stays calm longer! I can finally sleep through the night again, and our family life has become so much more relaxed. Absolutely recommendable!"

Perfect for dental development

"My daughter Emma used a cherry-shaped pacifier for a long time until our pediatrician pointed out that this shape can lead to dental misalignments. We then switched to the Nuckly because it supports natural jaw development. I immediately notice the difference: Emma sucks more relaxed, has no more pressure marks on her face, and prefers the pacifier much more than the old models. I am really thrilled!
