[quote=Anonymous]I am a pediatrician. Get rid of it. You’re not helping her learn to soothe without it. Emotional regulation is so important as is her speech development. I see children in my office who always have a pacifier in as they get above 1, and trust me when I say that their speech articulation does suffer as does their ability to regulate. It might be that the permissive parents are the issue with the regulation more than the pacifier itself, but if you’re asking for advice, mine would be to ditch it. Now. [/quote]
