Paci guilt - edit: wrong board

I gave DD the paci for a minute yesterday and a few more minutes today and am feeling terrible about it! But sometimes she just wants to suck and suck and my nips hurt and I have things to do other than have a baby hanging off my tit. I have only given it to her for a minute or two at a time until she mostly dozes off and then take it out so she doesn`t get used to sleeping with it. I had set a goal to avoid the paci until 4 weeks (totally arbitrary) or until bf?ng and latching was well-established. Well DD is only 3 wks and I don`t feel we are old pros at bfing yet. Tell me it`s ok.

Don't feel guilty! Did someone tell you to not give a paci this early? My girls were given pacis right away to help strengthen and develop their suck. We had them weaned off day time use by 6months and took them away at nighttime a few weeks ago.
Don't let anyone convince you that pacis are the devil! If they result in a happy baby, then do what you gotta do when she is so young!
