desperate - please help! Searching for discontinued dummies

67 replies

Scifinerd · 22/11/2008 20:14

My son will only take the Tommee Tippee closer to nature dummies. The ones he uses have now been discontinued and we are down to 4. It really helps his reflux and I have spent a small fortune trying out other dummies to no avail. Does anyone have any or know where I can get them. Please help, they really offer us all respite when he is having a bad reflux attack.

I have a couple that DS didn't like, he just spat them out so one of them went into his mouth, but they're not used iyswim. They're the 0-6 month ones, pic of them here. If they're any use to anyone, email me at katiewignall at hotmail dot com and I'll stick them in the post for you.

I had those and found them awful...I may have some in ds's room but not sure if you wanted them..? they are used.

Aren't these similar here..? I also got these for ds and dd and found them as awful as the oval shaped ones..can't beleive ebay btw .

Scifinerd · 22/11/2008 21:58

I am happy to take them used if you have them. Wish my ds hated them and would take something else.

NellietheEllie we could share the spoils if anyone else has them.

Mine are still available but first dibs to Scifinerd! That's if anyone knows a way to send someone an email address without anyone seeing it!

shhhh · 22/11/2008 22:03

I loved the way you can watch your lo sucking on them cute imo BUT they seemed to stick out and not fit flush to their face,think this is what ds & ds hated about them...will search some now. x

Scifinerd · 22/11/2008 22:07

I agree that they are supremely ugly dummies, remind me of maggie Simpson when my son is sucking on them .

shhhh, I love your user name, like a calm in the storm of stress I have created.

bluebump, you could email me and I'll pass your email address to Scifinerd? Promise I won't tell anyone else!

shhhh · 22/11/2008 22:13

Can't get into ds's room atm BUT have found the one as shown in my link...is this of use.? its round a purple...

KnitterInTheNW · 22/11/2008 22:14

Umm, I'm assuming it's Scifinerd that emailed me before?

NellieTheEllie · 22/11/2008 22:15

Scifinerd - That would be fab. Obviously you get first refusal on them as it was your thread, but right now, just one would be a bonus
will have to wait to see if anyone can explain how we do this without putting our emails on here...

shhhh · 22/11/2008 22:17

CAT each other !

Is my one of use btw.?

Scifinerd · 22/11/2008 22:18

Hi I just set up a new email account so you can email me at: scifinerd72 at gmail.com

Pannacotta · 22/11/2008 22:18

I have one of these that am pretty sure is unused (no box).
Happy to send out, perhaps Nellie woudl like it.
Feel free to CAT me if interested (Contact a Mnetter, link at top of page, also the best way of avoiding posting your email address).

Scifinerd · 22/11/2008 22:20

oops meant: scifinerd72 at googlemail.com

NellieTheEllie · 22/11/2008 22:24

Scifinerd - will email you in the morning as I can't use my email account on this computer (technophobe!)
Thanks to everyone who has searched etc, you are all very kind and it is much appreciated.

bluebump · 22/11/2008 22:26

Cool, i'll send an email to it now...

Scifinerd · 22/11/2008 22:27
