Which is of a lesser evil? thumb sucking or sucking on pacificer? my son (3mths old) has a tendency to suck his thumbs.. so whenever he does so, I will let him suck on the pacificer instead..

Research has shown that thumbsucking is worse for your lo's teeth than pacifiers. If you are comfortable in giving your lo pacifiers then let him/her take it. It's good to soothe them and better for your sanity.
