So DD's never had a dummy/comfort blanket/is the least clingy baby you've ever seen. (Where's Mummy? I don't care!) But recently she won't go to sleep unless I wipe her face with a baby wipe. She screams WIPEY!!!! at me, so I do it and she's off. Straight away. I think this stems from the fact that DP used to be quite heavy-handed with it and she hated it so I then made the effort to do it really gently, just to get her face clean. It's obviously a comfort thing, but I kind of don't want to indulge her now otherwise she'll always need it to go to sleep.

Also, she's discovered walking on her tip toes and does it ALL THE TIME. Is this normal or has she been watching way too much Angelina Ballerina on Netflix?

Anyone else's tots have funny little quirks like this?
