Dummy questions
Hi, nina is 2 1/2 weeks and I'm considering using a dummy for sleep as i have a toddler to consider as well.
Do you think it's possible to us a dummy occasionally, ie not everytime she goes to sleep but just on the odd occasion she's having trouble settling? Or would she end up needing it to get to sleep everytime?
Has anyone used a dummy say just for the first few months? I wondered if I could get away with just using it in the early days?
Would really appreciate some advice. x

my lo only got her dummy when she was tired and grumpy. Or when we were out and she needed a nap.
My lo is 5 months and now hardly ever has it although she does suck her thumb at bedtime
but at least she is not dependent on her dummy

I can't stand finger/thumb sucking so prefer her to have a dummy and hopefully won't start that habit
