      THIS! My DD never had a lovie but my 18 month old has a blankie that is super soft and he LOVES. It stays in the crib. We bought two extras for washing, etc and he recently found one in the laundry and carried it around constantly for two days straight. It WAS super cute but neither DH or I wanted that to become a habit. It's now in a closet until the crib one needs a washing.

        But, I can't say anything because I was a blankie baby. I had mine until I moved in with my fiancee and he asked me to put it away.
        I had a bear. Slept with it till I was in my 20s.. yea he still sleeps on the shelf by my bed

          I once taught pre-school at a local center. I had a three year old who came every morning with a paci in her mouth. Mom and Dad swore she couldn't possibly live without it. As soon as they left, I would tell the child to put it in her cubby. She would pop it out, put it away and never ask for it again, including at nap time.

          Fast forward to pick up......parents would rush for the cubby, take the paci and ram it in the kids mouth as if her life depended on it...and off they'd go. drove me nuts! THEY needed the paci, not the child!!

            So how fast do you think the connection with a security item can be made? Dcg has been sleeping great for weeks, and today, is suddenly not. Its just a fluke, right? That this is happening the same week as the sudden dcp insistence that she carries this thing around.

            I'm sure it's "teething". ::
