Ok, you're going to laugh at me. I already know it and it's ok.
I still sleep with a stuffed animal.
Amazingly I have made it through 26 years of my life without ever having being weaned off my bunny. I blame my mom though. When I was little, she always pushed this pink bunny on me and wouldn't let me sleep with other stuffed animals because she bought her for me before she knew I was even a girl. So bunny has become a part of my sleep pattern.
It's not like I drag her around the house or talk to the thing. She's just part of how I sleep. But I've decided that now that I'm going to be a mom, it's time to stop sleeping with a stuffed animal.
Amazingly DH is ok with bunny. I think he thinks it's just this little quirk I have. Actually, all of my boyfriends have been ok with it.
So how should I go about this? Cold turkey? Use another pillow in place of bunny? The first step to recovery is admitting you have a problem, right?
Re: I have a confession
If you really want to get rid of the bunny, maybe it can go into the nursery so the baby can have it.

I slept with stuffed animals until I got out of college. I still have to sleep with a blanket or pillow in my arms to feel safe.
I like Vikki's idea of putting it in the nursery. A pillow may help in place of the bunny.
Do you hold onto bunny all night or does she sleep next to you and eventually get thrown on the floor?
No, she typically is wedged in front of me all night long since I'm a side sleeper. She kind of helps prop me up. I'm thinking a small pillow will work for awhile. My body pillow is kind of too big to be comfortable right now.
