Is it okay for me to use a pacifier for my baby? I am trying to wean him off the breast.

Weaning is ultimately a personal decision and should be based on what's best for your family -- perhaps you're returning to work and need the flexibility of bottle-feeding, for instance. Most mothers choose to wean their baby off the breast when she's 4-7 months old, If you choose the wean him off the breast using pacifier, you will then have to wean him off once more from pacifier. I personally feel you should wean him off the breast totally or immediately. Take it slowly so that it's better for both of you. Skin to skin contact is the best bonding moments for babies and mummies. Please treasure it.
