Pacifiers for pain relief? There's a far better way. Check out the January
2000 issue of Pediatrics http://www.pediatrics.org/cgi/reprint/105/1/e14.pdf
for a fabulous article "Skin-to-skin contact is analgesic in healthy
newborns" by Larry Gray, Lisa Watt, and Elliott Blass. Should give you some
mighty good ammunition for keeping pacifiers OUT of your facility.
