Do what works but personally I don't rush getting rid of the dummy.

We don't rush potty training or weaning so why do we rush getting rid of their comforter?

She wasn't having it thought out the day but I don't want to now confuse her by giving it back yes that's true il see how she does.

Mine turned 2 yesterday and still has a dummy- she's only allowed it in bed and I haven't bothered ridding her of it as it works- i shut the door at 8pm, lights off and she's content and falls asleep. I check on her at about 10pm before I go to bed and it's fallen out of her mouth so don't see the issue

We had to give Dd hers back when we suddenly took it away before I wised up

She turned into an anxious little ball and constantly kept crying over the silliest things.

Tried again a few months later and she hasn't asked for it since. She was 3.4 when it finally went

She is nearly 3 and is fine during the day it's normally the going to sleep she ask for it but is quite content if I sit and cuddle her while we watch tv she just seems to have quite late nights at the moment.
