Dummies🤦🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️

My sister in law told me that for her second they cut them in front of him and had him throw them away, obviously he still missed them but he was forced to find a new comfort method after…

I’m thinking about explaining it to my daughter the best that I can next month and have her pick out a toy at the store and tell her that it’s going to replace her binkies because she’s a big girl. But there’s multiple ways you can get rid of them, you’ll just have to be patient and strict on not having them anymore… I wish you luck because I’ll be going through it soon😭 hope someone else gives you ideas too❤️

I honestly never thought we would see the day our daughter was obsessed, would even put them in between her toes and hold some to sleep as well as sucking on one.
We did it at Christmas and told her that Santa brings us new toys as we’ve been good and we have to put the dummies on the Christmas tree for Santa to take back to the workshop to make new ones for the babies that have been good
First week was hard without them but then we never heard about them after that
She was 3 years old when we did it x

We just went cold turkey and he ended up sucking his thumb every now and then, wishing you the best of luck tho 😅

How old is she

I am thinking how to get rid of the dummies as well. He is 9 and half month and start teething. Would like to have it only at the nights for a while

Hey y’all what’s a dummy?!

I cut my daughters dummy when she wasn’t in her room then I acted shocked and told her I think she’s chewed it off because she has all her teeth now so that’s dangerous (I was very dramatic with it😂)
She cried but then she wanted to put the broken dummy in the bin then that was that, not had it or asked for it since

Absolutely cold turkey after his second birthday. However he was only having it for bedtime (he no longer napped) so I definitely think that made it easier. You could try to reduce to nap/bed first and then get rid after that

She’s 3 in October but she finds comfort in them when she hurts herself or is tired! I’ve told her the Easter bunny will take them and give her chocolate but she’s having none of it🤦🏼‍♀️😂

Poke a tiny hole in it and they will eventually think that it sucks and will stop. Say that you can’t buy anymore and that stores don’t sell them anymore or something. Just go with the flow.

I'm just taking my son's away after breakie we say bye bye dummy see you tonight at bedtime say 5 going better than day 2

Our little girl asked for her dummy to be put in the bin after we cut the top off and every few days cut off another small bit. I don’t agree with cutting the cross in it to nip their tongue so I just cut it straight across the top and from that day she knew it wasn’t the same and probably a week later she asked for it to go in the bin because ‘it wasn’t working’ 🥺

(Never had to do it as my son didnt take to them but seen a few tips and tricks)

Dip in lemon or somthing bitter/sour

Poke holes with a pin so when LO sucks it removes the air and make teat flat, also works with a small cut

Cut a small hole if LO keeps using it you can gradually cut more and more every so many days/weeks till LO gives it up

Letting LO "choose" to give it up depending how old it can be given to the dummy fairys/santa/easter bunny ect in exchange for more treats/toys

Ive also seen some clips for the dummies but think its a certain brand that gradually makes the dummy harder to suck but not sure how safe they are

Good luck 😁

Honestly my daughter lost her dummy at 13 months ( I think) like we looked EVERYWHERE and no where to be found
and we just said to her when she asked. "Gone" " where is it?, you lost it" we never brought any more, first night or 3 were rough but manageable. Lost of of comfort ,love and cuddles. She never asked again.

Id hoenstly try hide them all or throw them all away when shes not looking. Stick.with it, dont give in and give it to her. Its hard but youll get there replace it with a teady or soemthing.

For my ( ex ) step son we used apple cider vinegar

My daughter was absolutely obsessed, but we had a rule that they always stay in the bedroom. Sometimes she would try to sneak them out snd lose them. So the last time she did it, I explained the consequences of her actions i.e. it’s lost and there isn’t another one to give, and she accepted it. And just like that, no more dummies. She didn’t get upset or anything and I was so shocked. I bought her a unicorn scooter and told her the dummy fairy gave it to her for being such a cool dude about letting go of her dummies, and she tells everyone about that.

My baby is 10 months old and he would like to havr dummy everywhere, but i started to give dummies only when go to sleep or for naps. Leaving then in bedroom
