We are trying so hard to not use the binky but realize sometimes it is just a necessary evil when in public, in the car, or when I just need to get something done around the house. I hate the binky because I just think there are better ways to calm a baby then just immediately shoving a binky in it's mouth. I hate the binky because they get addicted to it and before you know it the binky has taken over everyone's life! I see it all the time where parents are just held captive by the damn binky! All day they are picking it up off the ground and putting it back into the baby's mouth. All day they run around flustered searching for the nearest binky. This is no way to live people! It's time to make a stand and take your life back from the damn pacifier! I can see how parents get addicted to it too because it is just the quickest fix to a crying baby. I will admitt that it does come in handy upon occaison but we are trying really hard to only use it when absolutley necessary. I do not want our lives to be dictated by the binky. I HATE THE BINKY!

Coming from the mom of two paci-addicts.....it CAN be broken, but not easy. The paci has a mind of it's own. It takes over EVERYTHING!!!!!
I LOOOOOVE the binky! I scatter them around Riley's crib so when she wakes up in the middle of the night she can find one herself and go back to sleep. She has slept through the night since she was 6 weeks old! I have only gotten up a few times in the middle of the night with her and it's only because she's bored and playing so loudly in her crib that I have to finally go down there to convince her sleep is good. I figure we'll start trying to break the cycle around 12 months and slowly ease her out of it.
