How can my 2-year old stop taking the pacifier? She has a baby sister who is 40 days old and is being more attached to the pacifier.

Dr. Zakia Dimassi Pediatrics
Start by limiting the use of the pacifier to sleep time; when she's awake and cries try to comfort her (hold her, sing to her...). She may use her thumb and you should expect and accept that. And of course stop buying new pacifiers when the one she's using wears out.
