    DD has had a dummy - she will only ask for it if she is very tired or distressed from being hurt. as soon as she is calm, she spits it out. when she wakes in the morning, she sits up and won't get out of the cot until she can find her dummy and hand it to us. if she has lost it out of the cot overnight, she shows us where it is on the floor, asks for it back, then hands it to us like the other mornings "there it is!"

    she can go to sleep without it, but she settles more quickly with it. she spits it within minutes of settling.

    DD had one at 5 months, as she was teething and comfort sucking, but drinking so much she would spew!
