LOL Damn. I thought the rest of the country was nuts.
Where I am from the pacifier is called the binky. Maybe it s a black thing or something I do not know but seems like I always here binky meaning blankie. I got three kids and my sister got three kids, and my cousins got one and three kids. Every single one dropped the binky at a different time.
The only time the binky is an issue (IMHO) is once they get tetth.
For 2 reasons.
1) You going to go through them real fast
2) It can mess up their teeth. Although not sure of the science on that one since they are baby teeth...
Better a binky then a ba-baa
LOL
Skinny kid you got there.. Maybe it does need the ba-baa

Congrats holmes.
