    My 2 1/2 yo DD was attached to her pink single bed sized blanket between 1 and 2 years but she has recently not been so dependant on it and chaged to a soft teddy that she wants to sleep with.

    She does still sleep with her blanket though, only I can reason with her now if for some reason its not there, I couldnt do that before.

    Yep Chelsea has a soft body/hard faced pink doll named Isabella. She cant go to bed without it...and if we cant find her then we stay up all night until she is found. Heaven forbid if she gets dirty or vomitted on...its a night mare...!

    Joshua had a blue teddy bear given to him the day after he was born. It was ALWAYS with him.. and oh yes when he vomited on it one day I had to sneak him into the washing machine without him noticing!!

    Oskar has always had a flat cloth nappy. It started because I always had one with me for BF and chucks etc and he likes to hold it and chews the corner of it..lol. I actually think he uses it a bit for teething. The good thing about it though is that I can wash them as needed cos we have 30 of them...haha.

    Both my childre have teddies that my nana gave them just days before she passed away.

    Emma's is called Rose and she goes to all sleepovers with her and is always in bed at night.
    Hamish has Mr Cuddles, who sleeps with him every night and gives him special cuddles when he feels sick.

    Autumn was given a little blankie with an elephant's head in the middle (are they called dou-dous?) at birth which I strongly encouraged her to love. My mum bought a second one, very similar, for washing day but they have both ended up in her bed together. They are both called Johnson - I don't think she's confused...

    Charlie cuddles a wrap, he always has it for sleeps & often waddles around the house holding it, or cuddling it...or lately chewing on it. We had lots of trouble with his sleeping in the first few months so we'd sit watching telly with a wrap covering his face whilst we rocked him to sleep - I'm guessing that's where the love of the "cuddles" as we call it came from.
