Does your baby use a pacifier..is it BPA-free?

When my boys were babies I had no choice but to give them a pacifier,  for my sanity and theirs. Both boys were BIG babies, my first was 8 lbs  12oz and my second was 9 lbs 6oz and they both LOVED to eat. I breast  fed both boys and in the beginning they wanted to eat non stop.

I wanted to give them as much milk as possible but when my nipples  started to bleed I had to sooth myself with frozen peas and them with what we call in our house the “Suckie”. When my first was born there  wasn’t much being said about BPA-free but now with all the on going  research we are more aware of the harmful effects that non BPA-free can  do to our children. There are so many more options out there today.

Try the all natural rubber pacifier from,Natursutten availible at many retailers including Giggle and Babies R US .
