Getting rid of your child’s dummy can be a daunting prospect, but never fear because this podcast covers all you need to know about why, when and how to ditch the dummy – this is what we cover: 

• ‘Long term’ dummy use and what issues it might cause over time? 
• The age you should look at ditching the dummy. 
• When the best time is to do it (and when shouldn’t you give it a go?) 
• Judgement (that old chestnut!) by other parents, family, friends and why you should ignore it. 
• The first steps in getting rid of the dummy and whether it has to be ‘cold turkey’. 
• Supporting little ones who don’t understand. 
• How long the whole process tends to take, and 
• How to answer the question about where all the dummies go!
