has anyone actually had 'nipple confusion' happen to their baby due to mixing breast/bottle/dummy? the midwives keep telling me that a dummy/occasional bottle is a no-no but most people i know have not had a problem. My DS is 11 days old and understands breastfeeding well... we introduced a dummy last night (he has awful colic and is 'farty' - 11pm - 5am each night) and plan to try an expressed bottle today. but am just a bit worried it may cause the confusion...
