Have you seen this child??
The one with her paci in your mouth?? Well not in this house, not anymore. The cute little Pacifier or “nigh-nigh” she lovingly referred to them as are no longer present. The child who couldn’t go to bed without having 1 in her mouth, 1 in each hand and 2-3 extra in her bed has quit cold turkey.
Dave got fed up with the obsession, she was easily taking advantage of us and getting them throughout the day and no longer just during her sleep time. He decided enough was enough and helped her throw them out in the trash. For 36 hours we have been “nigh-nigh” free. I can’t believe it. We haven’t had any naps in the past 2 days, but night time hasn’t been too bad and during the day we can easily distract her with a treat or 2 if we get into super meltdown mode but the transition has gone MUCH easier then I expected.
I’m glad Dave took charge here because in my mind it was going to be a 12 step process to get rid of them, but he is right, let’s just rip the band aid off and go from there…..thank goodness.
