My 5 week old has a strong sucking reflex. At the moment she's using my nipple and I really want her to use a dummy instead. So far I have tried a Mam one, an Avent one and today a special one for breast fed babies - but she doesn't keep them in her mouth. Should I persist with them? Can anyone recommend any other dummies?
