Pacifier - the special substitute of a maternal breast capable to satisfy the sosatelny reflex arising at the little person since the birth. In spite of the fact that many pediatricians and stomatologists advise mothers whenever possible to refuse this simple subject of children's use, sometimes use of a dummy not only is very proved, but also it is extremely necessary for the kid.

Instruction

If mom made the decision to come to work or is purely physiologically not capable to bring up the child the milk, the ordinary pacifier can become necessary substitute of a maternal breast. There are also other situations when mom has to leave the house for long time, for example, need to go to hospital or to leave for a long time.

2. It is considered that to the children born earlier put term, the pacifier helps to develop necessary sosatelny reflexes, in this case training of the kid happens by specially developed techniques under strict supervision of experts.

3. Feeding on the mode can be also followed by use of a dummy, it will help to facilitate intervals between food, will replace to the kid of a toy, a diaper and a hand with whom the child will inevitably try to satisfy the natural reflexes.

4. Experts recommend not to abuse use of a dummy and to apply it only in special cases. You should not impose to the child a pacifier if he refuses it, is capricious, spits out. It is necessary to refuse a habit to suck a dummy as soon as possible: since 6-month age up to two years the sosatelny reflexes systematically die away and are nullified, at the same time need of use of a dummy disappears, the pacifier becomes absolutely useless.

5. Already from three-four-months age the parents have to try to do as often as possible without pacifier, to take out it during wakefulness, to try not to use when the kid is in good mood, to replace with more interesting hobbies and games.

6. If the dummy was used exclusively before going to bed as "soothing", capable to remove stress from full impressions of day, over time it has to be replaced with books, fairy tales and other rituals which will give the chance to the child independently to fill up.
