When to introduce pacifier to newborn?

Hi Mummies, When is it best to introduce pacifier to my newborn ? He is currently 26 days old and I am breastfeeding him as well as doing top up sometimes with bottle. Sometimes the baby cries too much, hence I am wondering if now is a good time to introduce pacifier or need to wait ? #advicepls #firstbaby

Hi mama! I introduced pacifier to my bb when he was 1 week old to keep my sanity. But if you intend to direct latch for long term, I would suggest not to as it may cause nipple confusion resulting in bb not wanting to latch next time.
