Hello
My son is 26 months , used it antil today only for naps and bedtime, and we have left it today!
He loves the garbage truck and loves to watch in the street( we live in Barcelona) and loves the men who work in it
So one day I told him we would give them the dummy so they would take it away...
He seemed alright about it. I just waited until he got his last canine out
So this week we were talking about givimg it away...I reminded him he would not have it to sleep, but he said he would sleep with his teddy!
And this morning when the garbage truck came by our street he shouted and called for me so he could throw the paci away.
I said are tou sure? He said yes
So we threw it away and " daddy went down to the garbage man because he had a present for him!!"
It was a garbage truck toy!!! He was so happy....
But...
Naptime arrived, he cried for 30 min and wanted to give the toy back!! Finally he accepted not having the paci....
Bedtime arrived, again crying he wanted it back..but I had to be strong!!!!! I talked to him and told him again that he was a big boy etc etc he finally fell asleep
First nightwake after 1 hour asleep, I am sure Overtired, crying and screeming, but after 30 min he calmed down, asked gain for the paci and I told him again the same story..it took him less time ro understand and has fallen asleep again
We will see how the night goes...
I know it will be a few difficult days but now we have made the step I dont want to go back!!!
