 Topic: The dummy fairy is coming...
Posted: 23 September 2007 at 8:49pm |
... tomorrow! EEK!!  Please everyone cross your fingers that it goes smoothly. She has been rather attached to it and I have slowly weaned it, but she still won't go to sleep without it.
So tomorrow morning she is going to post it the dummy fairy for the new babies, and before her afternoon sleep the dummy fairy will have dropped a parcel off for her to replace it (an upsy daisy doll which she will absolutely adore!).
We have been talking about it and she knows what is going to happen, but am still nervous. I figure if she packs a big sad and won't sleep in the afternoon at least she will be exhausted by night time and will hopefully go to sleep easier.
Ah well, she really is a big girl now so should be fine.

LOL, Kellz bought an Upsy Daisy for Isla when we were in Palmy. I just don't get what it is about that show, but Maya loves it and I know Gandt's boys do too. Maya knows all the characters, God only knows how seeing as she's at preschool 4 out of 5 mornings that it's on

Yaaayyyyy!!! Hope all goes well today.
Who wouldn't want to swap their dummy for Upsy-Daisy, I say?! Hannah's got herself an awesome deal out of this!

Good luck for the rest of the day - let us know how you get on. Oliver is very attached to his dummy and I sometimes I wonder if I should be stopping it now (11 months) or just leaving it until later when he can understand a bit more (like what you are doing)
Fingers crossed it all goes smoothly.

OMG I dont believe it - she's asleep!! 
She was happy as sending it off this morning. After lunch she started talking about the dummy fairy, so we went and checked the mailbox and there was a parcel addressed to Hannah. She was pretty rapt with Daisy, and went off to bed. She asked for dummy once and I just said no dummy, thats why the fairy bought Daisy. When I walked out she was saying no dummy, no dummy... She got up a few times, then cried for a few minutes (not very hard tho) and now she is asleep.
That has gone so much smoother than I expected, hope she goes off ok tonight. I am quite glad we waited until now, cos she really does seem to get it.

I did speak a little bit too soon She woke up after 40 mins and was sobbing away, but we talked again about where her dummy has gone etc and she was ok after that. She will be grumpy later from not enough sleep, but at least she will be really tired. So not perfect, but still better than expected.

Hang in there, it might take a couple of days but it's all sounding very promising.

We cant give in anyway, cos it is GONE! She has gone to bed and is mucking around a bit, but she's ok. I was expecting much, much worse.
