Rejecting pacifier all of a sudden

Hi all. Our 6 week old (7 on Monday) has loved his pacifier from day one but now all of a sudden screams when we try to give it to him. Anyone had a similar experience???

Re: Rejecting pacifier all of a sudden

  • DD took a pacifier at 2 days old and gave it up at 6w.  We also had issues with her taking a bottle (she stopped at 9w).  We kept trying both for about 6w and then gave up.  Our ped said it's not super common but does happen.

  • Try a different brand or style-our baby girl took the Nuk orthodontic pacifier for a few weeks and then refused it. We tried a different brand (evenflow) and she took it with no problems. Good luck!

    My son started to reject his, too. So now I dip the nipple in some formula or some pear juice and he takes it just fine.  

  • MY DD never really took one and I'm hoping my son won't either. If he's ok without it I wouldn't push it.
