They like to use mommy as a human pacifier. My pediatrician told me that you can start giving them the pacifier when they are 2-3 weeks old. Giving it to them before that could cause nipple confusion. Do what works for you. Happy mommy=happy baby! Good luck!!!
@cjd, it could be your smell. Maybe try sleeping with something that the baby sleeps with and then give it back. Sorry! 😞
