i threw my boys out the car window!! iit used drive me mad as hed spit it all over the car- ud have pull over and dummy hunt!! lol i just stopped altogether as i felt that he just doesnt need it and i didnt want to confuse the issue- its jus oh so easy to give it back if your having a hard day!! he had hissy fit 4 few days , thats it , over and done with. good luck xx

Hope it's going well hun. Charlie now only has his for naps and bedtime. Although I do still let him have it if he's upset. He's cutting 2 more back teeth at the minute and he's been really upset all day, so I've let him have it. But he won't have it tomorrow as he's at nursery and they're a bit stricter than me!

i have been quite lenient with it he has a very oud cry, not the easiest thing to do with darren sleeping through tthe next wall

It is really hard- but you just have to think that his crying will all be over soon, i suppose it relly depends on the child!!! does he wake and you go in and give him his dummy? mine used do that and it drove me nuts- once i had taken it away they slept really well after that. good luck x ps i am sure there have been times when all of us have given in for a quiet life!!! lol

Hows it going Yvanne?
I really need to be doing the same. Charlie has become obsessed with hers, odd really as she didnt even have a dum til she was about 4 months! We got through colic and everything with out one!
I hate hearing her talk with it in, In the new year it is going to have to come to a halt, bedtimes only!!
Its hard though, as I often feel like she needs it IYKNWIM??

When we got Ethan, he still had his 'dodie' and so this christmas, we said if he left it under the tree maybe father chirstmas would take it and give it to a baby who really needs it. They dont 'do' taher christmas as their dad was never really interested in telling them about it, but now they know theres a father christmas who comes and brings things, they each got a present off him and Ethan left Dodie for him. It's hard because Benji still has one so he wants his back, but he left it and is quite happy. Izzie's never really had one so it isnt a problem with her, We're at the stage of maybe giving one to Kabe but not sure just yet. Izzie sucks her thumb, and we're thinking its going to be easier to remove a dummy from Kabe than to remove Izzies thumb lol
