Taggie Blanket
using a baby dummy or not the choice is yours what's your motif!
what's your motif ! using a baby dummy or not the choice is yours.
Not all babies especially the very tiny ones weighing 1 pound and upwards are born with the sucking reflex that full term babies have.In the First instance your baby may be born premature and need a Premature baby dummy.
As a mum you will be eager to have your tiny baby come home,and this is one area the NICU staff look towards getting baby feeding normally, before being allowed home . A premature baby dummy helps settle a baby undergoing tests even with tubes or c-pap up the nose . A premature baby dummy helps a baby develop the neccessary sucking reflex used in feeding from a bottle or the breast.
Once a baby has moved onto a size 0+ dummy mums may concider leaving baby with a dummy until age 3, 4 and up to 5 years of age.This isn't good for a number of reasons.One a child becomes so attached to the dummy it is often to hard on mum to wean the child off at such a late age as this. The child will have had the use of a dummy from birth and will not want to part with it without being so distraught.
The second reason is once a full set of teeth appear from around 12 months plus the dummy can start to pull the teeth into an abnormal possition if used too frequently.
Toddlers use a dummy as a comforter and even age 2 is difficult to get a toddler to break free from using one at this age.By the age of 3 years speach problems can occur with prolonged use of a dummy.this is one problem you just don't want to happen as your child in turn may need help from a speach therapist and the dentist to correct teeth.
By the age of 3 a parent will find it very hard to break the habit. What a mess imagine getting your child to believe santa took it, or the tooth fairy ,or the dog ate it so many lies to convince a child to part with it.Then there's the sleepless nights without it a child screaming,or dad nipping off to a certain shop to buy the exact teat shape because only a certain type will satisfy their child.
How to you get from baby dummy to none?
Concider your motif as a parent for giving a baby one in the first place (forget being premature) but a newborn at home.
Settling into a routine perhaps? a Screaming Newborn Baby that doesnt settle?
Once you baby is established into a routine reduce the number of times your baby has a dummy during the day. A cry is a sign of telling you your baby needs something. A bottle A Cuddle, A nappy changed.
listen to your child's cry instead of being tempted into putting a dummy in their mouth just to keep them quiet. At the first sign of a tooth start the weaning off process.
What alternatives can you use instead of a baby dummy?
- A Comfort blanket If you only have one eventually it will wear out with many washes so have 2 .
- Silkies - babies like the texture of silk fabric some teehing squares have silk material attached look for these on the internet under taggies.
- Baby comforter in many forms usually a soft toy incoperating a small blanket a personal favourite as they are only small and a child can cuddle the soft and snuggly toy at the same time.A silk dressing gown as one little girl enjoyed yet got it dirty easily dragging it around with her every where.
