is it okay for LO to suck pacificer after fallen asleep? I tried to pull it out, I can feel that my LO is still sucking on it.. at times, he will wake up after I successfully pull the pacifier out.. most days, I will just let him suck till he himself spit out the pacificer.. which take hours after he had fallen asleep..

Personally, i feel it's okay to let them suck on it. i read that sucking on pacifirt while they sleep decrease their risk of SIDS and babies will self soothe. The theory is the constant sucking motion stimulates them enough to prevent them from not breathing. My Pd likes them for that reason but for 1 year old or older, she makes me take away since its harder to take away as they grow older.
