Baby Dummy Soother Pacifier Updater Kinda Thing!
Caught Mrs L’s post from yesterday evening and just have time for a quick update.
Jay’s not been too pleased about the abrupt loss of his dummy at naptimes and at night. He’s finding it a little bit harder to get to sleep, and we’ve had a fair bit of resistance when initially putting him to bed.
However. . . I have faith in the wee man! He’s so different from his sister! Ray is the ultimate creature of habit, while Jay adapts to change much more easily. Tonight’s his second night sans-soother and although he shouted for a while, he went to sleep quicker than last night. Anyway, I’m convinced he’ll be settled within the week.
If tonight’s anything to go by, there’ll also be less messing about at bedtime. Ray went to sleep almost immediately, simply because there was no dummy to steal. Hopefully the trend continues and we see better sleep patterns from both kiddies!
You are brave! We don’t dare to get their dummies out of our 3 and 2 year olds.

well to be honest if it was up to me both would probably still have them. But Mr L is a determined sort and it has become a battle of wills (between him and the kids I mean!)
