1. At breastfeeding to disaccustom the child to a dummy it is much simpler as its sosatelny reflex is completely satisfied. The children receiving artificial feeding need sucking of a dummy. They just lack time for satisfaction of a reflex which he spends on sucking of mix from a small bottle. Therefore children begin to be capricious and cry. If the kid was not given a dummy, he can replace it with a finger or a cam. Stomatologists recommend to disaccustom the child to a pacifier as soon as possible to avoid risk of development of pathology of a bite.
2. The age from four to six months is that time when the child has first signs of readiness for refusal of a dummy. According to opinion of modern pediatricians and stomatologists, it is necessary to disaccustom to a dummy already to half a year. If the kid can quietly fall asleep at a motion sickness without pacifier, does not demand a dummy until it does not appear in the field of his sight, move away her as it is possible further. The child will gradually forget about a dummy, the main thing is to occupy him with interesting games and classes. Before going to bed sing to the kid a lullaby a song, tell the interesting fairy tale, rock to sleep. Just have patience. Very often parents just have no patience on the long procedure of laying therefore it is simpler to them to give a pacifier.
3. For the child after a year of a nipple is not just a subject for sucking, and a favourite toy and the reliable friend. The kid already so got used to a dummy that it will be difficult for it to refuse it. The reflex on falling asleep is connected only with it at the child, and it is difficult to it to understand why mom always gave a pacifier, and now it began to move away her. In this case it is necessary to rely only on himself and the kid. If you see that he is not ready to leave a dummy – wait a little. Seize the opportunity when the child himself is ready to leave a pacifier. Suggest to share during the festivities a dummy with birdies or animals if the kid is ready to refuse a pacifier – he will agree with your conditions. If sharply to take away a dummy, then it is possible to create nervousness, a bad dream and offense at you at the kid.
