Jon Miller: MikeH speaks the truth
Jon Miller: MikeH is a shockingly revolting dolt and a masturbatory urine-reeking sideshow freak whose word is as valuable as an aging cow paddy.
We've got both kinds -
or you could let us talk to your gf about the matter...

Daniel generally sleeps in at 7PM instantly when put to bed (except for today: I put him to bed some 20min. ago and he still goes "njeanjeanjea" in this really annoying steadiness only babies can do), mainly because he just refuses to go to sleep during the day, unless driving in the car.
Whether or not to "just let them cry" depends on the caracter of the baby. Once Daniel was already extremely tired in the early afternoon but we didn't plan to drive around, so I just put him in his bed. He just refused, he was constantly turning around and standing up in his bed again, so I put him back in sleeping position again in some intervals. He did that for over an hour and finally we took him out of his bed, while I had to go to bed after that..."The world is too small in Vorarlberg".

You can make them go to bed at five without any pacifier... It's called peppermint schnoppz...

"He just refused, he was constantly turning around and standing up in his bed again, so I put him back in sleeping position again in some intervals."
Whenever Sophie does that, we just ignore her. "Deal with it kid, your parents are taking 4:00-4:30 off" is pretty much our attitude.Comment

"Has Sophie got a security blanket or favorite dolly or stuffy toy?"
Yeah, she's got all that. Sometimes she sleeps with her baby-doll, sometimes with Barney, all the time with a little bear that has been in her "bed" since she was a wee one.Comment

Soak the pacifier in vinegar. It's harmless and let's your baby be in control of getting rid of it.Comment

If Sophie doesn't do well, we'll try that. Good idea! (especially compared to the idea of wiping it on Mr. Fun's bunghole. :retch: )Comment

Alcohol (beer) works too (at least shorterm )
Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing?
Then why call him God? - EpicurusComment

None of that in our house. Both the wife and I are allergic to alcohol. (At least I know I am. Laura claims to be, but I've seen her drink wine before. The lush.)Comment

According to Laura, Sophie had no problem going down for her morning nap w/o the pacifier. Fingers are crossed...Comment

If Sophie is anything like I was, it will be easier to get her to recite Shakespear in Swedish than it will be to get rid of her dummy/pacifier. Once my mum finally got me off it, I turned around and used a stuffed toy as a replacement. I still have it, a little cloth lizard.
So many memories. Sometimes, it's the only thing that makes the pain bearable..... 
That lizard is also part of a story of international theft and smuggling but that's another day.Exult in your existence, because that very process has blundered unwittingly on its own negation.
