    I can barely understand the point of pacis all day long...IME (that is, with dcks only 'cause my DD never used one) they quickly learn to clamp their gums down around it and cry anyway, soooo....what's the point?

    I take the paci away except for naptime within just a few weeks of an infant being here. Most recent infant I had, she barely even fussed about it and went happily about her business--a couple times at pick-up mom would spot that dcg didn't have a paci in her mouth and practically flip out: "Oh no, dcg, where's your paci?! Quick, we need a paci Miss Silver!" and I would calmly tell her that the paci is in the diaper bag like always. DCG wouldn't even be fussing and mom would be flipping out. I think it ends up being more for the parent than for the kid.
    Hee hee! Look, I have a signature!

      Oh I must have missed that. That's funny though, the only one of my three children that has ever had an ear infection is the one that didn't use a paci.

        I'm a fan of paci's. I really think both my babies were happier babies because of it. I'm just confused at the theory behind the study cause both my children spit out the pacifier once they were in a deep sleep. So to me it defeats the SIDS purpose.

          Binky Butler

          How Binky Butler was born.
          The Binky Butler concept was developed when many of our friends became new mothers, and their chief complaint was the ensuing chaos when the pacifier fell from their babies’ mouths. Driving, working on the computer, or simple household tasks became a nightmare with an inconsolable baby. We brain-stormed a way to make our friends’ lives easier, and the Binky Butler was “born”.

          It is lightweight, functional and safe. Easy to pack and carry. New and seasoned moms alike will wonder where you got it, and will want to get one too!

          Enjoying your baby should be your top priority in the first two years of life, so let the Binky Butler do its job and keep your infant’s pacifier in place.
          No lost or dropped pacifiers.
          The Binky Butler is the only product of its kind on the market today. The Binky Butler performs a valuable task that many busy moms aren’t able to do: it holds the pacifier in place at the mouth, so your infant no longer loses their pacifier.

          But did you also know that we took great care to find the right material for your peace of mind and your child's safety. Each Binky Butler is made of BPA and Phthalate free materials and a latex free medical grade silicone.

          We love to hear from satisfied Moms who have found a helping hand in the simple, easy-to-use Binky Butler. If you have a testimonial to share, please send us an email and a picture of your Binky Butler in action!
          Simple. Genius. Tell me more.
          The Binky Butler is a hands-free pacifier holder, designed to hold the pacifier near, not in, your baby’s mouth. It clips to a carseat, crib, swing or stroller.

          There are no strings or straps to get tangled around baby’s neck. It is made of flexible soft foam strong enough to hold the pacifier in place when you are unable to.

          The Binky Butler is not meant to replace valuable face time with your baby – it is meant to be used as a tool to help parents free up their hands to perform the many tasks needed to care for a family – driving, typing on the computer, or working from home.

            I thought this was a joke, until I looked it up. All I can say is OMG!

            I've had less than 10 babies use binkies (pacis). Binkies are for nap time only. My 2 boys would share them, gross I know. I would constantly take them and wash them in the dishwasher. I was so glad when the eldest stopped, stopped so many colds between the two.

                Maybe unregistered is talking about their use with "Adult" babies??

                You know, what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas....

                    I was under the impression the AAP frowned upon the use of paci because of how they could push teeth out?! Interesting new recommendation.
                    My mother is a retired dental surgeon assistant and spent her days repairing the nasties that regular dentists would send their way.

                    She told me from when I was about 12 years old that if I ever used pacifiers with my own kids she's disown me!

                    One of her pet peeves was so called "orthodontic" pacifiers. There's no such thing. A child who ****s regularly on a paci WILL push their teeth forward. It's inevitable. It's repeated tongue trusting pressure behind the teeth. It works just like braces do. She would always tell moms to get rid of the darn thing as soon as they possible could.

                    The parent also becomes addicted to them. Baby makes a peeps? Plug it.
