Nicu = Neonatal Intensive Care Unit
A friend had a baby at 28 weeks and he was kept 4 months at St. Mary's. While he was there they would occasionally tape a pacifier in his mouth (very little tape) and then they would walk away (around the wall to another part of the unit).
I was wondering if it is bad parenting to do the same thing if he is in a swing (propped upright) and I am sitting next to him on the couch (so I can constantly watch him without holding the pacifer in). He wants the pacifker, not a bottle, but keeps popping it out and then screaming because he wants it. And i am talking about scotch tape, not duct tape, which easily comes off, pain-free.
