My son is almost 4 and its time to get rid of the beloved dummy! He only has it in the house and only towards the end of the day when he is tired and wants the comfort of stroking his blanket and having a suck of his dummy. He goes to bed with it but never has it in long.
So, how on earth do I get rid of it! He loves it! I don't mind the blanket, he's had that since he was in an incubator at birth, but the dummy has to go.
Has anyone got any good stories/tales of how to get rid of it, dummy fairy or something? Its nearly his 4th birthday, should we coincide that with the dummy fairy saying its time to give the dummy to a baby? Or should we make it a separate thing to his birthday?
Any suggestions gratefully received!
Thanks
