This weekend was the week! I decided on Monday that I was no longer going to put off taking the binky away. Awhile ago it become only a sleeping pattern, but I knew I had to do it.
She has been teething really bad for the last couple weeks, getting four top teeth and her molars so I was having a hard time doing it while she was in so much pain. Monday I took her binky and cut the end of it off, she was so confused when she put it in her mouth. She took it out and looked at it and I told her it was broken. Well, I let her have it cause it was not use and she walked around telling me it was broken. My nap time she would not even open her mouth for it, so she cried herself to sleep... this crying only last 5 minutes before she was out. She had a farely good nap, she would sometimes wake up and crying a bit but go right back to sleep. Monday night was the WORST, Mark was at school so I was alone to put her to bed. She cried so hard she was gauging... it was so hard but only last 10 or 15 minutes! Tuesday was alittle bit easier, she didnt cry too much. By Wednesday she was just fine without it!! The only down side is she wakes up about an hour earlier without it. I have been so worried that is was going to be so hard, apparently she was not as dependent as I thought!

Good for you Jesi. I remember when we did it to Wyatt we were moving into our house and I figured with all of these changes hey what's one more, so when we moved into the house I took all his pacifiers and cut them. As he found them he would put them in his mouth and tell me that they were broken, LOL!! It was then that I said oh well if it's broken throw it away and he did till everyone of them was gone. Oh I wish we was still that little and innocent. Thank you for sharing.
