Dummy Dilema

Hiya all

Please can someone help me? After two very disturbed nights, i am desperate for any advice.

My LO is teething at the mo, but apart from the odd grizzle it isn't too bad. However, when she first started teething, we rather foolishly gave her her dummy as this calmed and settled her. However, now she seems highly dependant on it, and even tho she may go to sleep without the dummy, she soon wakes up screaming for it, then everytime it falls out during the night she cries for it and wont settle without it.

Last night, she cried every hour!

Please can someone suggest anything that we could do to either keep the dummy in, or get Lucy not so dependant on it?

    She is having a mixture of calpol (when she wants to take it!) and Ashton and Parson's powder. They seem to do the trick better than calpol to be fair.

    Where can you get that liquid from? I don't recognise the name.
