What lovey did your child attach themselves to?
We tried giving the kids a few different lovies... they liked them, but never became very attached to having it... One was by a company called Noukies that you can "register" the item and if it is ever lost it can be replaced by a new one that is the same. I thought it was a good idea, but neither of the boys ever took to it.
A few months ago Lucas started demanding to sleep with one of my t-shirts... preferrably one that I've worn previously. I only sleep in them so it is no big deal, but every night he freaks until I give him one of my t-shirts.
Bryan just recently found a stuffed Woozle (beanie size) from the Heffalump movie. It still had the tags on from when I bought it at the Disney store several years ago... he calls it his Woozle Giraffe. The tags are gone now and he seems to have chosen that as his sleeping buddy.
CantWait replied: It really does change. Sometimes its nothing, sometimes his snake, his bear (he's got about 4 of them that he changes between), and sometimes its got to be a book.
sparkys2boys replied: ahhh the monk..lol!!!! Cameron never had a thing that he would sleep with until the monkey and then it went MIA!!! After that nothing again.. refused everything. But now we have monk back..lol!! I just put Cam to bed with his monkey safetly cuddled up with him(actually Cameron is strangling him to death.. he's holding on for dear life this time!) My oldest DS Logan has had a big blue bunny for years now, he won't sleep without it!
My3LilMonkeys replied: Brooke has a blankie that was knitted for her by my grandmother and Madison has a stuffed dog.
Our Lil' Family replied: A blanket....not one in particular, we have 3 that we rotate. Any of the 3 will do.
flirtycuddle replied: My dd started having a hard time when I went back to work for a few weeks when she was 7 months so I bought her a teddy bear from the gift shop at the hospital. Now she has to have it where ever she goes. Even to the store and she has to have it. We left it at grandmas house one night and she flipped all night. I am dreading the day it gets completly destroyed...it already has a hole in the nose that shes chewed in it. She also has to have a blanket to sleep
Calimama replied: She doesnt sleep with anything yet.. but when Antonio has duty nights and is away from home, she clutches his sock like crazy.
lisar replied: Well Lexi likes to have a doll near her. Not one particular but just any doll. And now its her Dog Spud. When she goes to bed she calls for him to go with her.
Raygen likes her blanket.
luvmykids replied: None of them got attached to anything, it just depends on the night. Sometimes it's a doll, some nights a stuffed animal, some nights a book....When Colt gets new boots though he usually wants to sleep with them on for about 2 weeks
Boo&BugsMom replied: A penguin named Paz. He's not too attached where he HAS to have it, but it's the one he prefers.
Cece00 replied: My oldest two (Ross 7 Evan) sleep with a quilt I made each of them before they were born, and my middle son (Evan) sleeps with this glow worm that was for my daughter. But he's been carrying it around lately & calling it his "beebee" and says its name is "Carrie" Ok, then.
My daughter sleeps with her "baby" and her blanket that I made her...the "baby" is actually a stuffed bear.
My youngest son doesnt sleep with anything as he's just 2.5 months old.
MyBrownEyedBoy replied: Logan has slept with his blue bunny since he was 6 months old. My FIL gave it to him after his first heart surgery and he hasn't spent a night without it since. He roots around for it in his sleep if he can't find it. Here's a pic.
Jolyn replied: Neither one of my boys have really attached themselves to anything. I tried to give them specific stuffed toys and blankets but they just never needed them.
