I have the same situation with my son, he won't take a pacifier either. I would love to know how others dealt with this.


Adorable pic by the way.

DD is a HUGE thumb sucker. No interest in the pacifier. I am not going to do anything about it right now. I find that it soothes her and helps her fall asleep. If I try to take it out of her mouth, it just goes right back in.

I'll worry about it when she is older Chat Icon

(By the way, adorable picture!!)

I have one and she's 21 months Chat Icon I really tried pushing the pacifier with no luck. They do have a device for older children that I may try(from One StepAhead). I am in the dental field so this issue is very important to me. I see patients all the time with speech and bite issues because of it Chat Icon
