A. Hello good morning !! Pacifier might help now but can cause jaw issues,teething alignment furtherely. Its common in infants always want to latch nipple. Give frequent feeds every two hours and on demand. While making baby sleep follow gently tapping or rubbing on baby back or shoulder to make baby sleep.
