24 hr Cold Turkey

This one has proved to be a toughy, trying to extract the soother/dummy/dooody from child #3.  The other 2 were quite straight forward and #2 gave his up just before he was 2.  Number 3 was 3 in June and is more 'vocal' than the other two and was very definite about wanting his doooody when ever he didn't have it.  I was worried.  But the other day he was looking for his doody and it couldn't be found (it was on the floor next to the fridge) and once I showed him the bowl where it is kept when not in use, and offered him the two stand by doodies which he turned his nose up at as 'someone' has bitten into them, he seemed to accept that they had gone.  I took this as an opportunity to never give his doody back to him, and after 2 nights of no doody it seems to be working...... (yay!).
