Without a pacifier, you might find it easier to establish a strong breastfeeding routine, as there’s no risk of nipple confusion or issues with latch.
➜ When infants’ innate need to suck is met with the option to nurse you increase opportunities for connection, bonding, and establishing a core belief that your baby’s needs for food, safety, and comfort will consistently be met.
➜ Allowing your little one to nurse on demand instead of offering a pacifier helps you to establish your milk supply and your baby to establish their latch.
➜ Skipping the pacifier can prevent potential future issues like dental misalignment or speech development concerns associated with prolonged use.
