Nai - thats a great idea about having 2 identical teddies!

Leesa - i too have heard that its good for them to have some sort of comfort toy, but we also didnt want to get into that, like we didnt want to start the dummy! but i guess its a case of what ever ur comfy with and whatever makes ur bub happy! im more worried about getting rid of the dummy than i am her Pinky!

Marlene - thats a good idea about rotating the 2 teddies - wish we had 2 identical Pinky's! hehehe but so far she is full on attached to it yet anyway - she just likes it at this stage, and we bring it along everywhere but she isnt at the stage where she "needs" it

mrscricket - oh dont remind me about the frantic dummy search in the middle of the night hahaha - i had one the other night - usually i walk to her bedroom with my eyes shut, find the dummy pop it in and back to bed and asleep - but the other night i couldnt find the dummy so i was searching everywhere - in the end i had to get a new one and bang i was wide awake!!!

danniellabella - i thought about putting some teddy's in Miss B cot when she gets a bit older, for her to occupy herself with when she wakes up - but DH has said no - he dosent want her to mix going to bed to sleep with going to bed with playing! i kinda see his point, but i think the older they get the easier it is too explain that cot is bed time and u can play quietly when u wake up IYKWIM? do u have any probs with ur little initially going to sleep?



Anyways - last night - we had 5 get ups! the first 2 DH did and they were pop the dummy in, the next 3 i did and the dummy was in she was just crawling around in her cot! except for the last one which i think was a nightmare! (which is another Post i have done)
We even left Pinky in her cot with her! but she didnt find Pinky when she kept waking up, so we had to give it too her to show her Pinky was there - i guess this is going to be a working progress! hahahaha
