Dummy clips at night

So, our little lady only has a dummy for naps and bedtime but we’re now throwing the dummy in the middle of the night, across the room, down the side of the crib which is making her distressed when she can’t find the dummy when she wakes. If the dummy is close by, she tends to grab and pop back in. What is the general consensus on a short beaded dummy clip for bedtime. Attached low enough to avoid strangulation and we have a short teether bead one so wouldn’t reach enough to cause an issue either I don’t think. No judgement but advice is welcomed! ❤️

Some people just put a few in the cot, safer than having anything her wrapped around their fingers or break apart and have loose bits

They're not advised at night. We use ours when he's asleep in pram/car but we can see him. We have a couple of dummies in bed with him

I wouldn't chance it. If she was to end up lying on it, it could hurt her. I agree, a few dummies in the crib

Sleepytot toy! Our daughter cuddles it and you can attach 4 dummies. She loves it and settles herself back to sleep with it. Been a life saver x

I just have a stash of spares on my side table to replace the one she throws out the cot. I wouldnt ever use a clip during the night as she could hurt her face or something.

We're in exactly the same situation and we've been using the mam dummy strap, short enough to not go round the neck. He still occasionally pulls it off, but most of the time you can see him find it, and put it back in his mouth. Also have a stash of spares in our room, so if it falls to the side of the cot, we can just run in, pop a new one in, and run out again. However, we have made the decision to drop the dummy after boxing day, so going cold turkey

I attach one to her vest under her sleep suit so there's only an inch or so exposed at her neck

The night genius dummy holder star I’ve looked at these if I ever need one. Just look into how safe they are? Or a sleepy tot as said above

I wouldn't use one. I think it is also very important that they learn that when they throw it away it doesn't magically come back every time...

I wouldn't risk it personally

It’s a no, how about a few glow in the dark dummies? They really glow all night and just scatter a few around her cot.. that’s what I did, I feel your frustration

Really recommend glow in the dark night time dummies, I thought they were a fad at first but they make a world of difference for you and baby for finding them easily at night. We pop a couple in the cot so that if she throws any out or they fall out of the bars, it’s not just one dummy we’re scrambling around for x
