Our first two didn't have a comforter as such other than a dummy, but they do have special toys they snuggle with occasionally. Our third child is a thumb sucker and has a blankie. This came about by accident as I just used the same throw blanket for her whenever she had a day sleep and she just became attached to it and now has it for both day sleeps and takes it to bed with her and it gets put in bed beside her - even in summer LOL.

Do you think he needs a little extra 'comfort' in bed with him? I don't have a problem with it, but if they do get really attached to whatever it is, it can be a problem sometimes in that they wont settle at all without it kwim?
