I nursed both my girls and we used the Advent pacifiers (like these: http://www.amazon.com/Philips-Nighttime-Infant-Pacifier-2-Count/dp/...)that are sized according to age. My oldest didn't take on, but my youngest loved these!
I know a lot of women love the Soothies, but neither of my girls would take them. They got them in the hospital and they just kept spitting them out. My nurse told me about the ones above.
You'll probably end up buying a few different kids to see if your baby likes any of them.

She does have a favorite felt caterpillar that seems to work for her. I just keep it regularly washed and let her have at it.

My baby loves the gumdrop pacifiers too! They mimic the shape of an actual nipple.
Soothies are awesome! I believe they are the same kinds they get in the hospital. My son was breastfeed as well and only kept the pacifier for 4 months. He started to soothe himself a little after that, but we did have a short rough patch. Good luck!
My breastfed baby boy uses the Avent pacifiers. He also use the Avent bottles and that is the reason I started with that brand of pacifier. I've never tried another brand since we didn't have any trouble getting him to take that one.
I recommend MAM pacifiers. My son loved to suck when he was a newborn and breastfeeding and those were the only pacifiers that he would use. I tried the Nuk, Soothies & Tommee Tippee pacifiers and he hated them.
