Breast Feeding ?

I am breastfeeding my 6 week old daughter. She is my third and is doing the best with nursing. She is a great latcher and I have plenty of milk, etc Problem is, she wants to stay on the breast even when she is not sucking. I have tried 7 different pacifiers but all of them gag her.

Thanks M.
