For parents who introduce pacifier, why? Also what are health risk for using pacifier and which month is the best to introduce pacifier without causing health risk for baby? Does pacifier lead to sleep association and does this affect parents alot? How do you tell baby needs pacifier vs need milk?

I intro because my baby has colic. Doctor recommended me to use it as it can soothe her. I used it when she was almost 2 months. Using pacifier can reduce SIDs. The possible health risk will be crooked teeth.
