If your baby will take a pacifier (unfortunately, it's not really up to you, lol) he or she will choose the brand he or she likes. DD takes one in the car, but only if it's a Nuk. We've tried Dr. Brown's, the original Binky brand, Tommee Tippee (or however they spell that), but she'll <i>only</i> take Nuk reliably. Sometimes she'll give the Dr. Brown's a minute before spitting it out, but not much longer. She might take others, but I see no reason to keep wasting money on things she might not use, since we know what she <i>will</i> use.
