Dan - Nope J never had one nor wanted one so that is easy! He has a bottle still though but Iz had one til nearly 3 so Im not too worried about that.

Well last night was interesting, we have been having a few issues with her at night lately just mucking around needing water, toilet, blankets off etc. anyway so she cried for about 10 mins when she realised that the dummy was gone, and I lay down with her and she was ok. Problem was I lay there for nearly 30 mins and she just kept mucking around so then when I went to leave she cracked it, then wanted the big light on, then wanted the door more open etc. the list went on and on and on til 9 (2 hours after she went to bed) by which time I had lost it. She didn't mention the dummy again but was obviously a bit thrown by it. I ended up putting her in our bed and she fell asleep within 2 minutes and then moved her to her bed where she slept til 6:40 with no wake up for dummy! Just woke up with a happy face on!

The really interesting thing was that she used to twirl her hair to go to sleep, started when she was around 12 mths and as her hair got longer she would twist it and curl it til she fell asleep, I noticed yesterday that she didn't do it for her nap but she didn't last night either, so it was like it was linked to the dummy?? Made me a bit sad not to see her "curling" as she calls it - my baby seems to be growing up.

Anyway seems to have been a fairly painless transition so far, the mucking around last night could have been any night recently so Im not sure that it was the dummy or not!
