help needed please... I'm b-feeding but my DS (8 m) is using me as a dummy through the night = me shattered. Some of this I think is teething but I also think it's habit. I hated dummies and said I wouldn't use them... when DS was born I started to think that they weren't such a bad thing but MIL made such a fuss I felt too guility to go ahead with one. (This is stupid I know because it's not her baby but it really got to me). Then when I had a try at about 3 or so months it was spat out with disgust
Now I'm thinking that it might a) help with my sleep B) his sleep c) and give my nipples a rest can anyone please advise on this because I'm thinking too that in a few months when I stop breastfeeding DS is going to get a major shock. I may have become a full time dummy and zombie by then(I'm already well on my way...) thanks

Help! I've become a human dummy! Is it too late to give a dummy at 8 months?
