We've always tried to let Sam set the pace, we've waited until he's good and ready before introducing major new ideas. This worked a treat with toilet training but now it gets difficult. Yesterday he lost his much treasured dummy, we've built him up to the idea that once it's gone he's not having a new one. He didn't use it too much, just for comfort at bedtime, but it's all very real now. I predict that all hell will be breaking loose at neveratoss Towers. I'm very, very glad that I'm at work today, gawd 'elp Cathy. Does anyone fancy going to the pub every night this week?
Update: I rang Cathy to find out how Sam is handling dummy "cold turkey". Apparently he is sitting on the sofa playing with his willy. Dunno where he gets that from!
