My son was nearly 3 (a month shy) and I knew that he was getting too old for the binkie and he wasn't even using it anymore as a binkie! He wasn't sucking on it at all. I had let him keep it because I felt guilty that it was his only soothing thing when he woke up in the middle of the night scratching his skin (eczema).<br /> <br />On my daughter's 2nd birthday, they both had a really good day and I decided it was time to get rid of the binkies. I threw all the binkies away and didn't talk about them at all. Neither child asked for them and we never looked back! I was completely shocked at how quickly we just stopped with no fuss.<br /><br />Just remember...they won't go to school with a binkie in their mouth...so don't stress too much :]Janiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03360115449173897838noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1428499245335727481.post-85970062538890898122011-04-20T11:05:59.772-04:002011-04-20T11:05:59.772-04:00Wow!

Alas, my daughter NEVER took a pacifier. We tried every kind under the sun and she just would not take one. Now, in hindsight, I am kind of glad, but let me tell you breaking her of her bottle back in January was AWFUL! So, I feel ya! <br /><br />Hang in there!

We did manage to get the paci away (we traded a paci for a stuffed puppy that C now sleeps with every.single.night. Maybe that would work for Jax? Replacing one soother with another?), but I was so afraid of how it would affect her sleep. Mommies need sleep too! I am equally fearful of the toddler bed and potty training, both of which need to happen this summer.

I've got a 15 month old with a binky which I haven't even thought of the binky fairy yet and an almost 4 yr old who is still sucking her thumb like a champ. I have no idea how I'm going to get her to stop!<br /><br />On another note, thanks for stopping by Baby Coupons & Stuff tonight! Much appreciated! <br /><br />Good luck with the whole binky thing! <br /><br />MichelleMichelle Cappiellohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03471376241429116223noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1428499245335727481.post-15080897019428858922011-04-19T22:56:04.853-04:002011-04-19T22:56:04.853-04:00Oy!

We took him out for ice cream at Friendly's to celebrate, and the very next day on our way to church he found one hidden under the seat of the truck. <br /><br />And he has guarded that sucker with his freaking life. He slept a sinlge night without the binky and when I asked him how my big boy slept the next morning he said, "No very good, mommy. Not very good at all."Alicia https://www.blogger.com/profile/07692435395205403848noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1428499245335727481.post-61543902789651286992011-04-19T16:18:55.261-04:002011-04-19T16:18:55.261-04:00I just busted out laughing at work!!!!

LOL There were nights of me laying with them rubbing their face, arms whatever just to get them to sleep!!! Now, my granson Jack had a 'mr. bink' and my daughter took it away a bit after his first bday...with no problem, unlike his mom who wore me out with the constant "rub my arm until I fall asleep" stuff...each one is different, maybe Em will have an easier go...regardless there is no written rule on what is right or wrong and peace and quiet for you is paramount in my book!!!! <br />hugs,<br />melodyAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07451856462658763040noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1428499245335727481.post-69593393136725095362011-04-19T15:51:47.642-04:002011-04-19T15:51:47.642-04:00Hahahahahahahaha I swear we share the same mini mo...Hahahahahahahaha I swear we share the same mini mommy world!
