DAMChats 18) Pacifying our lovey

Pacifiers, loveys, binkies, or dummies—no matter the name, these little life-savers are a big part of many babies’ early years. They soothe, help with sleep, aid digestion, and even provide comfort in stressful moments. But what happens when it’s time to say goodbye to this beloved item? Maren and Eva dive deep into the reality of weaning off pacifiers, exploring the challenges many parents face and offering practical insights on how to make this transition smoother.

In this episode, they share their own experiences, reflect on the benefits of pacifiers, and discuss strategies for gently removing them when the time comes. It’s a conversation filled with honesty and tips that can help you navigate this common parenting dilemma. Whether you’re dreading the moment or already in the process of weaning, this episode is for every parent looking for support and advice in the journey of weaning off pacifiers.
