Books to help with the tricky stuff - taking away bottles/dummies etc

[Kaja]

Hi all...

Would anyone know of any books which deal with some of the trickier parenting moments like the following:

stopping the bedtime bottle
taking away the dummy
weaning them off their blankie
moving into a big bed from a cot

anything like that...?

Any help greatly appreciated!

I can't think of any about the experiences you mention -probably because I co-sleep and breastfeed so haven't needed those particular things addressed - a picture book on why biting your Mothers nipple is a bad idea would be good though

Large bookstores tend to have a new experiences section, with books about mummy having a new baby, starting school, etc so that would be worth checking, at least for the cot to bed one and possibly dummy.

Thanks Disorderly - and my sympathy for the biting incident! I ended up literally macerated...!

Yes, there's a 'dummy' one called something like The Noo-Noo - even though our DCs didn't use dummies at all we definitely read it to both of them during their picture-book years..... Hope you manage to track it down!

It's called The Last Noo-Noo, it's brilliant!! Very supportive of children still wanting their dummies, but also very funny.

The Last Noo by Jill Murphy (who also wrote The Large Family). Brilliant book.

Sorry, should have read The Last Noo Noo.
