I breastfed for more than 18 months, and she still liked her pacifier. It was not hard to ween her from it, only took a week or so, gone before she was 2. Did no damage.
So I'd just say it's personal choice. The only bad thing I remember was having to always have a backup, in case one was lost or fell in the dirt or something.
We never went against it. We have 10 different models.
There are so many myths regarding pregnancy and new born/breastfeeding/etc. That amazes me.
Lmao, one could create a subforum on that.
