Do it now (three to four months old).
If your baby begins to cry and you know he is well fed, then the pacifier should be the last thing you use to stop his crying. He may be bored, wet, tired, hungry again, or just plain irritable. If he wants you to play with him, putting a pacifier in his mouth won’t stop his crying.
Examine your motivation for giving him the pacifier. The easy route is to plug him up because you’re busy doing something else. Here’s the long view:
Eliminating the binky now is a lot easier than it will be when he’s older. (If you have older children, you know this all too well.) Offer him your whole self to stop the crying, and in a few short days, the baby will be forgotten. It’s a lot easier than the tantrums, tricks, and tragedies you will have to suffer (or inflict) to get rid of it when he’s a toddler. By then, it’s his lifeline, and you’ll be seeing it until he’s three. Or four.
Do it now.
