First night without the dummy🫣😬

So I said a week ago in a post that we weren't ready to part with dummy, too tired for that at the moment. Decided tonight was the night, though. I tried last night but he was having none of it. So my husband said OK tomorrow night (tonight) do you think you can be a brave boy and go without? Oliver said yeah. And his new saying at the moment is "deal! Shake on it" 😅 I didn't bring dummy upstairs with me tonight, we said can you remember what we said last night. He said yes but was pleading with us to get dummy. 😥 I honestly nearly gave in. His little face, sounds silly, but I felt quite emotional . He's growing up too quick. Need to try persevere though. He was upset but I kept saying how brave and strong he is, little babies need it more. Youre a big boy now and need to protect teeth. So proud of you. I said if he can go all night I will buy him some stickers. He said cow stickers 🤣 He then stopped asking for it , asked me for a cuddle then dropped off to sleep. I'm expecting him to wake up in the night asking for it but hopefully won't be too bad. Wish us luck🤞💙
