My DS2 has to have his dummies (*sigh*) and his blankie. His blankie is his old muslin wrap that he used to be wrapped in as a bub. Luckily we have two is all I can say! He loves to play with the edges of it, kind of pulling the edge through his fingers.
DS1 never really had a blankie, but he does have a stuffed dog named Pokie that he likes to snuggle up with in bed
DD1 had nothing. DD2 has/had a cot sized blanket that folds into a cushion. It used to have to go anywhere she was staying, but its been waiting for a wash for a while, & she's not worried, lol.
DS still has the boob. He's weaned, but if he's sick, or upset, or tired, he'll put a hand down my shirt, sit it on my nipple & will instantly settle/sleep! He tries with my mum too, lol.
DS has "blankie" which is a knitted cot blanket. He became really attached to it after he had a really bad case of gastro a couple of years back. He can sleep without it but he loves it. But it stays at home as its too big to cart around.. unless we're sleeping the night somewhere.
DD has "bunny" which is one of those bunny heads on a cloth type things. Shes had that since she was a baby.
DD1 still has "Nay" and "Moo". Nay is a soft blanket she had as a baby and Moo is a beanie cow. She does not sleep without either.
DD2 has a dummy, a cloth terry-flat nappy, and her fisher-price seahorse. She would sleep without the seahorse though...maybe
At 3mths I thought dear god a child cant have comfort things right...wrong...when she was born I wrapped her in these cotton bonds wraps - now without it she whinges....
