Pacifier picks
Article Abstract:
Pacifiers must be safe. Buy them rigid but too large to go into an infant's mouth. If they are attached with a string, it must never be more than six inches long to avoid strangulation. They must be dishwasher safe and the best ones are shaped like a thumb. Never use bottle nipples as pacifiers.

New parents' biggest questions
Article Abstract:
Newborn babies can be bathed every other day using mild products that have no fragrances or colors. Picking up babies under six months when they cry will not spoil them and may even result in the demand for lesser attention in later months.
