How's life without the muter? You all adjusted now? Glad you took the plunge?
Minus a brief terrible stint with teething, I can't believe how different sleeping is without the pacifier. He's fine going to sleep now....and sleeps through the night. Never thought getting rid of the pacifier would lead to a baby sleeping through the night. I think he used to wake up looking for the pacifier....and then wonder where the heck his mama is. I'm proud we took the plunge and thankful it's over. Hopefully things are going well with you guys too!

Re: mrswatts
Thanks for thinking of us! She is doing great. The first few days were the worst, now she doesn't even think about it. Bedtime and naptime are back to normal (as in easy peasy) and she has always slept through the night. She now has her "stars" to keep her occupied (one of those Cloud B turtles with the constellations that shine up on the ceiling...she freaking is in love with it!).
She falls asleep with that and her bunny at night. There have been a few more temper tantrums (before we would be like quick draw mcgraw with the muter! haha) now it's a quiet tone when we talk to her and get her to tell us with words what she wants (help please, juice please, snack please...etc...always with "anks!" afterwards, lol). It's going well. I'm not sure that I'm partial either way, I just knew it was a habit that needed to be broken sooner or later.
I'm pretty positive that she doesn't miss it. Story from DCP is that one of the daycare kids (who is like 6m old or something like that, really young) was fussing for his paci the other day. She found it and gave it right to him, without putting it in her mouth first. I'd say that's a win!
This melts my heart!
I tried all sorts of soft cuddlies, but Adrian said no way and threw everything But he is in love with these http://www.amazon.com/Haba-1121-Kringelring-Clutching-toy/dp/B0002HYCMI/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1326072996&sr=8-2
He holds it tight all night and wakes up with them in his arms. At least we won't need to put it in the washing machine. And good thing we happen to have two.
It's nice taking the pacifier is over though...
