Hi all...well, spoke to a mothercraft nurse that runs a sleep school and she said the only way to really overcome it is to be rid of the dummy! She said it should take 24 hours of really hard work but that she would quickly get over it. Haven't gone there yet as too scared of mucking up her night sleep which I am happy with. Instead, we are weaning her out of the wrap so that she can access her hands.This has it's good points and bad points. Good points, she seems to like having her hands free and we will often find her holding hands or her dummy once she is asleep - very cute. Bad points is that until she is asleep she doesn't know what to do with her hands and keeps trying to put them in her mouth which knocks her dummy out so then she cries and around goes the cycle! She has been doing this thing where she sucks her dummy and her hand at the same time! Anyway, thanks for your ideas and advice and we will see how we go.
