Need some reassurance........ update
in Baby
ok, first go tonight at weaning my lo off of his dummy.
It is the first time he has ever gone to sleep without his dummy, YAY!!!!!!!!!
It has taken 40 mins but i did it and perservered BUT............................
Now i feel like the worst mummy in the world cos i let him cry when i knew i had what he wanted right there, but just didnt let him have it.
Am i doin the right thing. Has anyone else had any experience with this.

Hey girls just to update you a week later, Ryan has not had his dummy now for a week and im so proud of him and its actually been a lot easier than i was expecting. He has just been settling himself off to sleep at nap time and night time.
It was well worth it.

Nathan has his dummy for naps and bed only and I tried to wean him off it starting with a nap a few days ago and gave up after 5 minutes but I really want to try again.
How old is your Lo? Does he use his dummy during the day as well?

Ryan is 7 months, i have to admit its more for selfish reasons really, like having to keep going and puttng it back in, etc.
But i wanted to definatly wean it off him by a year old.
how old is your lo
good luck with the rest of the night x

Maybe toys will be the next best thing to calm him with
Any tips girls.

Glad to know its not just me.
