Some would say I am jinxing myself by saying this, but here goes…I think I have weaned Ian off the pacifier. As with Ethan, once he turned four months and was past the stage of needing to constantly suck on something, I limited the pacifier to bedtime. He would constantly loose it at night and I would have to go in and give it back to him. Once he began rolling around, I decided that he could find his own pacifier and put three in there for him. I began to notice that he did not always fall asleep with one. I started putting him to down for naps and bedtime without handing it to him at all. Then I took one out, and after a few days, took another out, leaving just one. He continued to be able to sleep without it and never seemed to look for it at night, he would wake up fussing occassionally but I ignored him and he would then fall back asleep. So then this whole week he has been without one at all and doing fine. Yay Ian!
