Sleeping with pacifiers?!

Do you do it? Is it safe? Can they sleep with the wubbanubs or would they be considered a choking hazard? I'm new at this! Sorry if these are stupid questions. Thanks for the help!!

    Mine sleeps with her paci. I just take it off the paci lanyard and it always (ALWAYS) falls out sometime shortly after she falls asleep.

    Yep cuts down the sids risk cause they have to suck which triggers the breathing reflux. Like PP said take it off the laynard though :)

    You should really consult your pedi if you don't know if something is safe or not. BUT, it is safe. It's said to cut down the risk of SIDS. Amelia sleeps with one and so does Emma.

    Amelia has Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome. She has had 3 open heart surgeries, 1 g-tube surgery, and one tracheostomy. She is the strongest, most precious little fighter.

    Pacifier is fine, but I personally wouldn't be comfortable with the stuffed animal part of the wannanub.

    Nora sleeps with her Paci she usually loses it after about 30 minutes. My pedi says it is safe and reduces the risk of SIDS. I wouldn't use it with the lanyard(at night) and I'm kinda freaked out about the possibility of it coming apart so I don't let my kids use them for a long time, I change them out, they are cheap enough and it may be silly but it makes me feel better.

    My almost 5 week old sleeps with one.  My pediatrician recommends it, but says that if you are breastfeeding to wait until after your baby has a strong and confident latch.

    Sometimes Cece does and sometimes she doesn't. It just depends on the mood she's in prior to sleeping. However, I pushed her to sleep with it the first few days home because I was over producing milk and she had reflux pretty bad. The sucking/swallowing really cut down the spit ups.

    I have no problem with my Little man sleeping with his Wubbanub but he almost never does, falls asleep with out it. One of my older daughters had a Wubbanub and always slept with it until recently.

    I always offer it at bedtime because of the benefit of reducing SIDS risk. Sometimes she takes it and sometimes not...depends on her mood.
