Just a reminder PLEASE check your child's dummy

[veve]

just a reminder to all mummies (and daddies)

I check Jacks dummies fairly regularly (its hard when he has so many .. :laughing:) but .. a few weeks ago .. I found one that had FOUR small holes in it (perfectly shaped teeth holes) - two on top .. two on the bottom

I have continued to check his dummies .. and have no found three more with teeth holes.. it was only a matter of time before the teat fell off ... :eek:

so PLEASE please check the dummies ..

thanks
Jen

I'll have to check brooke's as she is biting and pulling it out of her mouth alot lately like a game when she finds them around the house :rolleyes: gonna have to leave them in the fridge all the time.

Not only is it a safety issue, but it's certainly a hygiene one as well. Imagine all the nasty little germs being sucked in and out of those teeny teethmark holes....euw.

[cheezelkat]

eek! :eek:

oh no i will definately check beths - especially now she is teething again.

As soon as DS1 started biting his dummies (when i say this i mean he holds it, clamps down with his teeth and then pulls it away) I took them away - every last one of them! He had to go cold turkey - thank goodness we had no dramas!

But yes it is a very serious matter and I have always checked the dummies before giving them to the boys each time!

DS1 didn't ever put holes in his dummies, but everytime one of DS2's gets a hole it goes in the bin.

thanks for the warning!

ill keep an eye out now that DD has two teeth

It's scary to think about what a damaged dummy can do... :eek: But thanks for the reminder! I'm new to dummies - Ronan never wanted one and Ariene's love of them has just taken off, but now I know what to look out for! Thanks!:yes:

[natasha]
