How do you keep baby from using you as a pacifier without giving up breastfeeding? Whenever he's upset and I'm around, he wants the boob. For other people he will take a pacifier and settle just from rocking, etc, but not for me. Any advice??
My baby is 7 weeks and she just started using the pacifier. I use the soothie kind. I started trying to give it to her while changing her and while she's awake on her back looking at her toys etc... It took a few days but now she takes it from me! I would try to introduce it slowly. Now if she would only take a bottle from me and not my boob all the time lol
because he knows you as mommy. you have the boob so he always gonna know you as mommy booby. he'll take a Bobo from others because it's not you. it has to do with how they see you as. like example. mom is as boob, with daddy is bottle if you pump. :)
Hahah funny thing is he will take a bottle from me without a problem! And he was really tired while we were out yesterday and he took a paci from me with no problem! So I think maybe he just needs the boob when he is really upset and I'm definitely not going to deny him that. @babylove11416 @amaresmama @wiccanmommy
