Hi everyone :)
My son is almost 1, he had a dummy until he was 6 months old and he loved it, however he would wake up in the night so much crying for it so we weaned him off it.
I know it sounds weird that I want him to have it back, but he's been grinding his teeth quite badly and he keeps waking up in a lot of pain from it.
He also doesn't have any comforts during the night, he sleeps in his cot in his own room and has no attachments to white noise/blankets/teddies etc, so I think it would be nice now that he is old enough to reach for his dummy himself to give him it back for bed.
He's gotten into the habit of falling to sleep on his bottle so when he wakes in the night with pain from grinding his teeth, he just wants a bottle for comfort, I'm hoping to replace this with a dummy however he just doesn't know what to do with a dummy. He just takes it out and either plays with it or chews it (neither relaxing).
Has anyone experienced anything like this before? Any tips and advice would be amazing :)
PLEASE only nice comments, thank you! :) Xx
