A liquid dispensing pacifier comprising a body having a proximal end and a distal end, and a nipple base defining the proximal end. A resilient nipple is affixed to and extends outward from the nipple base. An aperture base defines the distal end of the body, and an aperture is affixed to and extends from the aperture base. A reservoir is located within the body, and is in fluid communication with the resilient nipple. A plurality of pleats are disposed along the body which permit the body to collapse and compress in response to an infant withdrawing fluid from the reservoir via the resilient nipple.

A liquid dispensing pacifier comprising: a) a body having a proximal end, a distal end and a proximal-distal axis extending between said ends, b) a nipple base having a plane which extends transverse to the proximal-distal axis and defines the proximal end of said body; c) a resilient nipple affixed to said nipple base extending outward therefrom, away from said body; d) an aperture base having a plane which extends transverse to the proximal-distal axis and defines the distal end of said body; e) an aperture extending outward from the aperture base away from the body, the aperture forming a loop having a plane which extends perpendicular to the plane of the aperture base and functions as a handle to be grasped by an infant; and f) a reservoir for storing fluids, said reservoir in fluid communication with the resilient nipple and located within the body, wherein the body further comprises a plurality of pleats located between the proximal end and the distal end of the body, said pleats circular in shape and comprising a major fold line and two minor fold lines, each minor fold line shared in common with an adjoining pleat, each major fold line larger in diameter than the minor fold line, and both fold lines concentric to each other so that said pleats are capable of compressing and allowing the body to collapse into a compact position upon an infant withdrawing liquid from the reservoir, preventing the infant from ingesting air, and causing the liquid dispensing pacifier to thereafter function as an infant suckling pacifier.
