okay my daughter is 3 and i cant get the binky away from her, ive tryed to put holes in them, she just wont give them up.
I dont let her bring them out in public but when bed time hits she needs it. I dont even think she sucks it i think she holds it and like sqeezes it. Any suggestions
Answer
take all of them from the house and THROW them away. when she asks for it tell her that the binky fairy came and took them away, but she left you a present in the place of them.get her a small present and wrap it up then hold it out to her and say your a big girl now so you have a choice i can call the binky fairy and have her bring it back or you can have this fun present.she will probably say present.but before i give it to you i want you to know that once you open this the binkies are gone forever do you want the big girl present?she will probably say yes and then let her have it. she will more then likly play with it for a while and then tire from it before BED TIME DUNDUNDUN! so heres what to do. at bed time she will probably ask for binky and then you say this.okay remember you chose that fun toy over the binky. binky fairy took your binky and gave it to a very sad baby that needed it.your a big girl now and dont need binky you have ( whatever toy you got her) .then leave the room and NO matter what dont give into her when she cries because she will.!!!this will probably go on for a week or more but soon she will forget binky.remeber the binky fairy DOES NOT give refunds!!lol. i really do hope i helped. her teeth are developing and night time is the worst time for her to have it.
GOOD LUCK AND HOPE I HELPED!!

One month old and binky question?
Baby Kaide
My son is 5 weeks old and is very attatched to his binky. He is on formula now, and ever since I brought him home from the hospital he HAS TO have the binky in his mouth to be content. I have tried to soothe him rock him to sleep so he doesn't have to rely on it to go to sleep., He wants it even when he's awake just to have in his mouth. The problem is it flies out of his mouth all the time. Does any other moms have this problem? He can't keep it in his mouth. He is using the newborn first years soothie binkys. I'm constantly having to put it back in 100 times a day and night. because he SCREAMS as soon as it comes out. And is happy when its back in. Any advice? I'm exhausted.
Answer
I did find that the binkies with a nub on the end don't fall out as easily as the soothies. My son so far likes every binky that he's given, but spits them out when he goes into a deep sleep and is easy to soothe without it as well. The only problem with my son is that he is soothed by the binky so I want him to use it (plus it reduces the risk of SIDS in the first 6 months as well as being good for their teeth as opposed to anything else they could suck on) and he doesn't have a really great hold on the binkies. He's 5 weeks old as well (will be 6 weeks this thursday) and he's already trying to grab and pull the binky towards him (he got one yesterday and was so excited, but couldn't get it in his mouth...) and will try to hold the binky in his mouth so it won't fall out sometimes.
What I do remember being told though is that they have to learn how to use the binky. It's not as natural to keep it in their mouth. So the first few weeks you try to pull the binky away from them rather than put it in their mouth, tugging at it until they get a good latch and play tug-o-war sort of with you. It helps them figure out what muscles to use.
Something to keep in mind though is that if they continually spit it out, they don't want it. Yeah, they may take it and calm, but in reality they need something else. With my son, if he spits out the binky continually then he's hungry. He's starting to inch his way to needing 5oz of formula now every 2-3 hours (normally he has needed 4oz.) Last night I gave him his usual 4oz and he wouldn't take the binky for more than a few minutes before spitting it out. I made him another 2 oz and he ate that. He wasn't starving, but he wasn't comfortably full yet.
