So I know this might sound like a dumb question but I'm a first time mom and idk... I breastfeed my baby and she latches great!! We've given her a paci since day 1...well we were going to wait a few weeks before introducing one but the nursery nurse gave her one without asking anyway! Whenever I go to offer it to her she opens her mouth super wide like she does when I'm breastfeeding her and sometimes she'll close her mouth and suck the paci in but others she'll just keep her mouth wide open like it's my boob.. is there a way you're supposed to do it that makes it easier for them to take it? I don't want to just shove it in her mouth when she does that because I don't want to choke her...lol
@serendipity466 she does want it I just think she can't figure out how to suck on it whenever she can get the hang of it she loves having it it's just like she keeps opening her mouth super wide because she thinks it's my boob
My son is 3 months and we have been trying to give him the paci once in a while but he doesn't keep it. He sometimes still chokes on it but we changed he pacifiers. I thought the green ones from the hospital would be best but the nipples are way too long and he hates them. He likes the Nookums that comes with the stuff animal. But he seriously only took the paci 5times in the last 3 months. If she doesn't take it in when you put it on her lips/in her mouth, don't force it. She might not be a paci baby.
Are u using the same type of pacifier that was at the hospital? Cause nipple confusion can sometimes occur with the fake nipples
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
Religion Conspiracy/Theory
**This is not to bash peoples religion and beliefs but to talk about our own theories and ideas** I would like to discuss a certain topic that came to mind after talking to my SO. I know some of you ladies like a good conspiracy talk so i would like to have a good discussion and hear thoughts of others. So back story my SO friends got very offended when he mentioned not believing in god or religion and it got me thinking. Is religion a failing form of goverment cont...

Dear Moms,
Preggie mom @njf1216 sadly posted today that her daughter Reagan Brinkley was born early at 35 weeks sleeping, when doctors discovered that she no longer had a heartbeat. Let's send her our love and heartfelt wishes, and to the other moms who have also had angel babies. If you would like to, please write a message to her on this post or send her a private message.
We are deeply saddened by her loss and are are keeping her in our hearts at this difficult time.
Warmest wishes,

@jcbaby, I see. She's still little so I think it's harder for her to keep it in but in a couple of months she should be able to do it. Not sure there is anything you can do for now but wait :)
