Abstract
Infants have an intense need to suck since birth and often cry because of various reasons including cry, anger, frustration etc, the situation become more challenging when kids are admitted in hospitals. Some babies may cry more often than others, even when there is nothing wrong. They are not mature neurologically and are often calmed by sucking. Some of the suggested methods to soothe infants include holding up, rocking in baby carriers, talk a walk in a stroller, breast feeding, get support from family, or trying a baby pacifier. Pacifiers are referred to any object which helps children adjust to new situation or calm them or relieve their stress. 75-85% of kids use pacifiers in western countries and hospital nurseries commonly give them to newly born babies. Although breastfeeding is the most effective way to calm infants, and often kids have reflex to place their hands or thumbs in their mouths, pacifiers can be very helpful for discontented or cranky babies who cannot or will not suck their thumbs or fingers.
