Regarding soother
My baby age is 5 month old and she is o formula feed as mother milk supply is stopped. But from some time my baby crying alot before going to sleep so i give soother first time at the age of 5 month only for 5 to 10 minutes. When they go in deep sleep we take out the soother from mouth. Mainly we use soother for 5 to 10 minutes for around 5-6 time in a day. My question is that can this soother effect my baby mouth and teeth if we use some limited time
