The Binky

I don't know why that's the universal word for "pacifier" but Nyla has sort of taken to a binky. At first, Paul and I were super anti-pacifier because we didn't want to break her of it. But then we realized that sometimes, Nyla isn't hungry; she just wants something to suck on. Why not let it be a binky?

We have tried for the past almost four months to get her to take a pacifier, but it has all been to no avail. I think I may have found some success today though! She's been fussy, and we're thinking it's because some teeth are starting to come through. I have started to take her pacifier and dunk it in super cold water for a few seconds, then in her mouth it goes! And she's loving it! Hooray!

Yeah, I like this.

I think it's soothing on her gums so she's liking it. Mommy is loving it because this means I don't need to be pulling my shirt off or making a bottle every ten minutes. Sweet!
