pacifier question

WHEN can they put their own pacifier in their mouths?
LOL - im sick and tired of getting up 100 times during the night to put it back in!

 

Mine finally got to the point where they could reach around their cribs and find them around 9ish months. Around 6 or 7 months when they were awake and could see it - but in a dark room, half asleep - it was closer to 9 months. Hopefully your's will locate and reinsert pacis sooner than mine did!

 

this is exactly why i quit giving DD her paci when she was 4 months old!

 

Yeah I'm guessing around the 9-10 month mark too. Mine are 5 months and can grab their paci off the floor but haven't been able to manuever it into their mouth properly yet, they usually chew on the sides

 

Oh, my gosh! I'm with you sister! and mine are only 3 weeks... my boy is so dependent on it already! I don't know what to do. I have to put it in his mouth atleast 10 times a night. I wish I knew how to break him from it. But he just keeps crying and crying until I give it to him!

Have you seen the pacifier puppy? It's a stuffed animal that attaches to the pacifier... someone developed it so the baby can hold onto it and hold the paci in their mouth better. I was going to look into it. But don't know what age it's recommended for.

 

My babies are almost 7 months and they are just starting to try to put their pacis in their mouths. They can't really do it yet. I hope yours are faster at learning how to do it!

 

8/9 months for us. Sorry you have a while to go!

 

I am SO with you!! LOL I can't wait till they can put it back in by themselves! looong way to go!
