recommended not to use it after 18 mths. my son still use it.... change every 3 mths, daily boil it. gradually decrease the usage so that he/she can stop using it when reach 18 mths, hopefully la... coz not cheap if u buy Avent !!! RM 28.90/2 units

Hong, will it really help the baby? concern that the baby will be addicted to it. My mum was telling me that they have to purposely put medicated oil on it to avoid me from sucking it. But they also told me that i go to the paip and washed it off......:) Anyway, my wife will be experimenting on it soon.

somehow i think the baby feel more "secure" kuah when they are sucking on something during thier "extremly free time"...... and they tend to stop crying when they r sucking it.... they can addicted to it...... but i always ask my son:"give me cheuk cheuk". then he will take it out from mouth by hand or just throw away... they understand our language somehow someway even though they cant speak yet....

That's cool. will try to talk more with my daughter. See what her respond. Interesting experience in the fatherhood.

It all depends on the user eventually. If she fusses a lot before dozing off or just feeling a bit stressed, try giving her one to sooth her. Some babies naturally reject the pacifier. Some babies suck their thumb, which is worse from the expereinces I hear. So, let your baby decide for herself. But generally, pacifier isn't a bad thing. Get those orthodontic ones so her teeth won't be affected much. Hope that helps!

According to YunShin, she doesn't like the pacifier so much. Eventually, YunShin just sooth her to sleep and she will split it off when she dozed. Great to hear such an experience from you Aruri. Need to consult you more often...:)

I think sharing my experiences sounds better than 'consulting'.. hahhaha, I myself still learning, but I'm very happy to share!
