So I've been thinking about this new little bundle of joy who will be entering our world in just a few short months and I can't help but wonder what I will do about the paci controversy.
I was registering for a few things for a very small shower in the country I grew up in. I basically registered for small things that would be easily carried in my suitcase, when my mother asked me why I didn't register for any pacifiers. I just shrugged and said "I donno..."
So it made me think about whether or not I will use them.
So I'm looking for personal experiences. Did you use them with your child? Was it planned or did it just happen? Is it better for the baby to have one? I honestly don't know.
I plan on breastfeeding and I was wondering if there would be a possibility for nipple confusion with pacis. If the baby is upset I would rather just nurse comfort her/him but who knows, that may get old really fast
My SIL nursed exclusively for 6 months and still used a paci with the babe when she was an infant. So it can't be that bad can it?
Any ideas? Help? SUggestions?
