Using a dummy really soothes my little one, but she is still to young to keep it in her mouth, so it keeps falling out. I need to then hold it there all the time. Any suggestions?
I cannot find a 0-3month dummy with the 'ring' attachement, to loop a blanket through.
I have the 0-3 month Tomee Tippee dummy.
 
Other than sellotaping MY DD head to the dummy I have not been able to find a solution and its a really big problem, I can however now sleep holding her hands so she doesnt rub her head (due to ezcema its really sore ATM and she has rubbed it raw) AND hold her dummy in at night when needs must :lol: NOW thats multi tasking :lol:

I wouldnt advocate putting a blanket in the ring section of the dummy TBH there would be risk of smothering your LO however if I swaddle her I find the blanket is up to the neck so a bigger dummy can be tucked slightly at the edges into the blanket to keep it there.

I tried hundreds of styles and found cherry dummies in 6+months worked best when she was tiny (must have had a big mouth :lol: ) but then graduated to a tescos one shaped like a butterfly with a flatter dumm, sometimes switching them gets her to suck better.
 
Iv always used these Tommee Tippee Orthodontic natural flex soothers :)

My daughter LOVED them, they have little "nubs" to help with the grip, aswell as vent holes to prevent dummy rash etc. She never had a problem keeping them in either :) x

Iv bought some for new baby ready :D
