Pacifier use is very pervasive in my corner of the US. Not many people BF
so I'm not sure how it really affects BF, but I truly believe it does.
Pacifier use after 6 mo is also supposed to increase OM infections! I tell
parents that there seems to be a natural age of weaning from the pacifier
(5-7 months) and really push for them to go! I've seen them cause speech
problems in older toddlers! Sincerely, Pat in SNJ
