is it normal for my one week old daughter to want to use me as a binky/ pacifier? all she wants to do is suck on me to go to sleep what should i do? and also she only wakes up once a night were as my sone woke up every 2-4 hours?? should i wake her or not

I would check on her a few times during the night (which I'm sure you do anyway ) But I wouldn't wake her just to eat, unless you are worried she isn't getting enough milk during the day to make up for it.

My son did the same thing (using me as a passy), I think it is pretty normal. But, honestly, I can't remember what I did about it. I probably just let him fall asleep. Sorry I couldn't be more help. Good luck!

If I remember correctly, as long as your daughter is getting her 8 to 12 feedings in durring the day time it is not necessary to wake her at night. I used to wake my daughter during the day make sure she got her feeding in during the day, so if she wanted to sleep more at night she could.

My daughter would sometimes use me as a pacifier, but I don't remember it being a problem I had to break her from. Sorry I couldn't help on that one.

thank y'all im sure its pretty normal but i didnt breastfeed my son so its a little new to me. its not a big problem or anything just a little curious, and she eats realy well during the day but my son did as well and STILL woke up every few hours , idk all babies are different i quess i need to count my blessing and accept i got a good baby thanks for the help y'all

I had to spend time in hosp after giveing birth and the midwives kept waking me up to wake my baby up for her feeds. she kept falling asleep and they told me i had to keep prodding her gently to keep her feeding and not sleeping, i dont make enough milk to feed her so i feed her till im empty then top her up with formula she seems ok on that, but if she wontgoto sleep then i let her use me as a passy then when shesfastasleep she goes to her cot, as long as she is getting herfood and is putting on weight i wouldnt worry just keep your eye on babys weight
