Paci Debate and help!!! July 6, 2009

We’ve been having the pacifier debate at our house recently.

The boys absolutely love their paci’s!! Love them!!

But they are now 19 months old and part of me thinks its time to get rid of them.  The reason I say part of me is because they sleep so well  at night and during naps with their paci’s. That’s the main reason I hesitate, I don’t want to lose their good sleeping habits.

During the day and play time they are without the paci. Sometimes Daddy DT will give it to them if they are whining or fussing.

But if I walk in a see them with it, I just ask for it and they usually happily hand it over.  They know I put them on the kitchen counter, and occasionally Little H will walk over and ask for it. But only close to nap or bed time.

So my question is for all.  If your child used a paci, at what age did you take it away and how??  Any tips would help a great deal.  Thank you!
