Maybe I shouldn't feel so guilty that DS2 won't sleep without his pacifier:
American Academy of Pediatrics endorses pacifiers to reduce SIDS risk
Boy, will that stir up a hornets' nest with the attachment parenting crowd.

Sometimes its perfectly ok to let a baby sit in a swing and enjoy the music and or mobile while you are doing something else.
