Well done on sticking to your guns and not giving the dummy back. I am not up to that stage yet and am dreading it! Not that my DD has it all the time, only when she is tired or in the car. I hope I can be as strong as you have been when it comes time for it.
i must be horrible i made DS throw them in the bin lol he kept asking i just said sorry buddy u threw it out its so much better without it we kept losing it it was madness good luck
I am getting rid of my DD's dummy when she is 18 months which is only 2.5 weeks away. We have started slowly weaning her off by not allowing her to have it during the day and shes doing really well. We have it strapped to her so at times she goes to grab it realises its not there and says "where is it?" and we say "i dont know" and she forgets all about it.
I'm dreading night time as shes always gone to sleep with it so might start off slowly by not taking it to bed and see how she goes.
What you are doing is great and its great she understands. I say be persistant and hopefully soon she will forget all about it.
You've done really well to get this far and stick to your guns. From what it sounds like the worst is (hopefully) over. It's good that she understands and in the long run you know that you are doing the right thing.
