Anyone have advice on how to get my 6 week old to take a dummy. She needs to suckle all the time - spends a lot of time sucking my little finger when i have had enough of breast feeding but won't take the dummy. help!

Might sound a bit mad but we would hold DS in bf position with dummy in nipple position - worked better with DH doing it to start with. Also may be worth trying a few different dummies as they come in all shapes and sizes.
