Medical Advice

Doctor: You need to get rid of that binky (referring to Lacie).
Me: I know, I've been trying. I just don't know how to do it.
Doctor: You throw it in the garbage.

Thanks...

Hilarious! That doctor is keepin' it real! ;o)

Maybe you remember our tactic with Amy (our only pacifier-lover). I snipped the very end off of her pacifier(s). Then I could still give it to her, but it didn't give her the same satisfaction it used to. I kept snipping off more until there was barely anything sticking out of the base. She ended up just holding it in bed. It worked like a charm and was very, very easy. Good luck!

That's funny. Was that Dr. Jim?!

No, it was her neurologist. And if she even had a CLUE how hard I've tried - literally, we have done everything. Snipping the end, taking them all away, throwing it away, sending it away, giving them as a gift to baby brother, etc,etc. Nothing has worked. I figure as long as there is a binky somewhere in her universe she WILL sniff it out, find it, swipe it and suck it. argh.
