Oral Fixation and Pacifiers

[ABlackKinkster]

Hi everyone, 

If you use them, what about pacifiers interests you? What about them excites you? 

As a newish Daddy / CG looking for his title to call his own, the thought of giving them a pacifier after a long adulting work day warms my heart knowing that they are being heard, be observed and being cared for in comfort and in care. 

Share your thoughts below!

I can go either way with pacifiers but my Daddy absolutely loves popping one into my mouth for story time or during cuddles.

[CodeName: Trouble]

I love pacifiers!

SOME reasons I love my Binkies (there are probably more):

1. They are super cute. Who doesn't like feeling cute???

2. Self-soothing/ anxiety management - I am absolutely riddled with anxiety 😅pacis help but are not at all a cure, they just fill the same need that comforting music, hugging yourself or clicking a pen/tapping on a desk would. 

3. Oral fixations - something to have in your mouth to prevent you from putting other things in your mouth. Pacis are pretty easy to clean so I have less anxiety about germs when I pop one in while I'm gaming, rather then chewing on my shirt or a pen or something. I clean and boil my pacis religiously, lol

4. Reinforce a dynamic / Reinforce a little mindset. "Well of course you're a little one - why else would you have a paci!" "Sorry sweetie, babies can't talk. You better keep that paci in and let the adults handle things." Of course props aren't necessary to be little, but they can serve as a good tool for reinforcement. 

Bonus points if Daddy puts my paci in and doesn't let me take it out ❤️ Nothing feels better than Daddy initiating/mandating little time, being encouraged (or even 'forced') into that headspace is like.. GOALS.❤️ Pacis are an easy way for Daddy to do that and NOTHING is more validating for my headspace than Daddy treating me little when I don't have to ask for it.

5. Stops me from eating junk when I'm board 

6. Comforting during regression/littlespace - It's just nice

 

With all the reasons I love my paci, I don't use them as much as I would like. Sadly I have always been prone to ear infections and for some reason using a paci too often seems to have a direct link to ear aches. I also have allergies and it isn't comfortable to use a paci when I'm stuffed up  

When I do use my paci though I can keep it in easily a full day + night and not get board of it 🥰

I love to use pacis the are calming and cute I even like to decorate my own to make it feel more special.

I think Trouble hit a lot of the same points as me, but here's my two cents:

1) They're a little piece of art! I collect fashion dolls and am a very artistic person so I love collecting them and displaying them.
2) They help me from grinding my teeth. I clench my jaw often, especially when stressed or sleeping, and they help me relax. 
3) It makes me feel comforted and less anxious. 
4) It makes me feel itty bitty when my Daddy gives it to me.
5) It makes me feel extra small because "of course" I need a paci - I'm just a baby!

I find for me, pacis are a great stimmy toy and it saves my tongue from being sucked raw lol. I also love how cute they are and I've decorated my own in the past, it was sooo much fun! When I've been given a paci or told to put one in, it always gave me a warm comfortable feeling.

I have always had one. Long before I found out about littles. It was my secret. I use it to help me sleep or to calm down. It literally soothes me. It's a part of me. 

It's not about cute or dynamic. It's an actual need.

I suck my thumb. I have sucked my thumb all my life and it’s so comforting for me. 
daddy also likes me to suck a pacifier which makes me feel sooo cute, especially when I also have my stuffy to cuddle. But it’s my thumb that actually helps me relax 🤍

Oh, this is a timely post for me because I just got some pacis for myself.

I did a lot of research to find "orthodontic" pacis that wouldn't mess up my teeth and got three different sizes from Pacifier Addict to try. So far, I really like them! Here is why:

- stimming/stress relief: I used to get "chewlry" or pen toppers to chew on, or chew gum or something to calm myself. These satisfy that need a bit better. 

- keeps me from eating candy - I don't have a terrible candy habit, but a lot of times I only want it because I'm nervous or bored, so this helps.

- they are cute! Some of them really are works of art, and I like to take pictures with them to send to Daddy or just because I feel cute.

So far, they really are more for aesthetics and stress relief. I probably wouldn't take them out of the house unless I was going to a littles meet-up or place where littles are welcome. But I will say, a lot of people who use them aren't even into DDlg, they seem to be popular for a variety of people.

I've never used one in my adult life, but they do sound pretty relaxing, and I've indulged myself in some art of it... albeit taken to a bit of an extreme in terms of size. It's a little complicated when I have a deviated septum, but I might be able to manage one. The way Trouble described it sounds absolutely lovely!

Also, BlackKinkster, the way you talk about your potential future little is SO sweet. I've literally never felt so safe just reading the words of somebody I didn't know describing their ideal relationship. ;;

I'm a huge fan of the brand LittleForBig on Amazon (don't know if links are allowed). I have a binkie that I use when I'm stressed out, trying to relax, or if I'm just trying to get close to my mommy. I love to nurse, but my mommy is an ACE and sometimes just cannot handle physical touch. What really helps soothe me is to use my binkie and look at my mommy. Eye contact using one is amazing, but I'll take anything I can get if it's my mommy.

I use a bottle, binky. For me, I think it has to do with oxytocin, maybe dopamine and serotonin? I know it makes me feel calm, nurtured and quieted. I think it maybe biological, a throw back to our evolutionary roots that state "this person, thing, experience is good". As we grow the reaction may dull but for some it does not.

Hi Hi!! I personally feel that it is really soothing! Especially depending of the age of the little, they might use it more often than some due to that as well. Using them after a very long and stressful day of work is so beneficial and really just soothes the mind!

Pacis...bought one not a me thing.  The plastic is too ummm not my thing.  It's too hard or tough.  A thumb is so much better in my opinion.  It feels softer and more natural.   I think pacis are cute and adorable but not for me.  Maybe it might be haven't tried the material or something but my thumb is easier and always there and I don't have to worry bout anyone seeing it.   So yeah.

I just both my first one not long ago and I simply love it is really calming. I am definitely getting a bigger one. I just both one in a super market just to try it out, gonna buy an adult one thats for sure❤

I'm literally addicted to my bobo (paci)🤩 I literally cry when I can't find it 😩💖 daddy knows when I'm sleepy or cranky so he puts it right in my mouth and gives me my bunny and I calm right down 🐇🩷🍼💕🥰 

And I take it everywhere I go but I get too scared to use it in front of people so I sneak it 🫣😄💓 

My bobo is PINK 🩷 and I put really sparkly rhinestones all over it☺️☺️☺️ I really love when daddy gives it to me himself because it reminds me how much he knows, loves, and accepts me 🍼💕
