my boy, who is now 7 months old, very rarely takes a pacifier.. i think that he believes it's pointless, all this work and ....NO MILK!!!

as for trying a bottle, my boy has had both breast and bottle(formula) from the minute he was born without any problem...i don't believe all the stuff about nipple confusion(neither does the baby whisperer)...the other poster was right though, you will eventually need a break and i think that it's best to get her used to it sooner rather than later.

and lastly, you shouldn't feel like you need a separate room to breastfeed your child, ESPECIALLY at the doctor's office...it's something that you'll be doing for a long time and you should not feel ashamed to do it!

just my opinion though!

good luck with the feeding!
