It is always an adjustment for both the child and parent when such things as these are removed but I feel it is the parent who is more afraid of change than the child.

None of my kids were into pacifiers although two out of three were thumb suckers and I think they did it to calm themselves because they are such intensely emotional kids. My middle child was easy going and didn't want any of it. We started them with sippy cups as soon as we could, probably around 1 years old and moved to cups just as fast except my third child. She is a wild child and spills everything in her path. I have found what works for one doesn't always work for another.

I breastfed (and am currently with my youngest) and all 3 of my children refused bottles and only my first would take the pacifier. At 6 months, the pacifiers were turfed and I introduced sippy cups with water at meal times. But I hate sippy cups, they are a pain to wash so once my babies get confident with the sippy I take the lids off and give them a sip at a time. By a year none of my kids had sippys. This wasn`t deliberate, it just worked for me.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13143825130357402922noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-298420976025938487.post-87444096498950335332013-10-09T08:32:43.470-04:002013-10-09T08:32:43.470-04:00oh gosh lol bring back those memories. Girl my lit...oh gosh lol bring back those memories. Girl my little one wore a pacifier string around her neck till she was a little over one. OMG we all had a backup pacifier, that was her lifeline. She would pop that thing in like the little girl on the Simpsons, till the remained a tan marked of the shape of the paci on her mouth. lol we thought she was marked for life. Lawd when we took that away, that child screamed for days. What memories that brought back :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00260503702640648031noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-298420976025938487.post-13998311522048385262013-10-08T21:43:03.219-04:002013-10-08T21:43:03.219-04:00I definitely don't miss these times, but it bu...I definitely don't miss these times, but it burns me up when I see older kids like 4 or 5 with their fingers in their mouths - yuck yuck yuck!!!Antionette Blakehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17600724908573839224noreply@blogger.com
