Resorted to using dummies

in Twins & multiples
Didnt want to use dummies but boys are really restless in the evening and have resorted to dummies? we are so tired and it just seems the easiest option, they sort of seem to like them, may just use for evening as a last resort. Luke still has his dummy but only when tired. Comments please.

    Hi Soda

    I use dummies for my girls too, I didnt for first baby but i think with multiples especially when they are not your onlt children you have to because you are not always able to tend to the babies straight away and if it gives them comfort and you some rest time then I cant see the harm,

    P.s have you heard anymore about Sara's babies???

    hi soda

    with mine ross will happily suck on his dum - but darcy is a monster.
    there is no way she will suck one!
    it drives me mad and i wish she would have one!!!! she sucks her thumb - but can't reach it when strapped into a car seat which makes driving a noisy experience!

    more power to the dummy i think!

    We use dummies and would not have been able to cope without them. My girls are almost 8 months now and are slowly weaning themselves off them.
    You have NOTHING to worry about using them, and don't let anyone make you think you are being a "bad mum" for using them!!
