That night after having to hold Callie's hand till she fell asleep & then listening to Jack cry it out I was feeling like the worst mom ever - we didn't think about the fact that since our kids were sick they enjoyed the comfort of their binkies more than at other times. But we can't go back now. It would be hard any time we tried (Except we shouldn't have done it when they were so sick! My poor babies!)! So hopefully soon Callie will be able to go to bed on her own. I think it's harder since she & Jack are sharing a room. He's confined to his crib so he works it out & only cries for a couple of minutes before settling down & then going to sleep, but Callie's in a bed & she won't stay in it. And every time we have to go in to put her back in bed or talk to her, it disturbs Jack & he starts the crying all over. Auhg!
3 talk to me:
you are so brave...collin went to the dentist last week and he told me that i really need to get collin off the binkies...i don't know if i can be so strong...or listen to the crying. tell me how it goes though, we are going to try it this summer...maybe...hopefully.
How is it going now? I had hoped that taking the paci away would make Camille sleep better, but it hasn't. I often wish I hadn't taken it away. I am hoping that eventually they will forget about paci's just like they forget about breastfeeding. I love binky's but I also hate them. Good luck!
I remember those days. Hopefully it is much better now. It took Emily a couple of days but then she was fine. We had her throw them away also so I kept reminding her that she has thrown them away and we couldn't get them out. She told me once or twice that she wanted to go to the store and buy a new one but I just held strong. Not sure what I am going to do with Adam. He sure does like it!
