Bedtime pacifier problems with my almost 6 month old

Anyone else’s kid at almost 6 months old constantly wakes up and starts crying whenever their pacifier falls out of their mouth?
My son is almost 6 months old and needs his pacifier to fall asleep and to be swaddled as well, however he’s so specific, when he’s swaddled he needs a specific blanket over him and most the time I have to turn him on his side because that’s the only way to get him to sleep for at least 2-3 hrs it feels like. However, the problem here is that when he goes into a deep sleep his pacifier ends up falling out which will eventually wake him up and he becomes fussy and irritable with 1) the fact that it fell out
2) where it landed
3) the fact that he can’t put it back in his mouth.
I’ve tried so many solutions on how to keep it in his mouth (safely might I add) but it’s always the same results.
I’ve even tried to ween him off a bit but he’s just so attached to it. If anyone has any suggestions on what to do? Cause not giving it to him isn’t an option right now, because he will just end up screaming and crying for it until he gets it back.
