It happened to my BFF's little girl, and they immediately cut off the end and that was the end. they let her carry it around but the pacifier aspect was gone. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/2-using-binkys#post-1959788 Tue, 25 Nov 2014 12:53:23 +0000 anonysquire 1959788@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just don't think she will share lol. The new baby is going to need his own. </p> [attach=1857/14/nflwd0.600x600.IMG_20141121_085620.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/2-using-binkys#post-1959786 Tue, 25 Nov 2014 12:52:36 +0000 anonysquire 1959786@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mamasig: @MrsRcCar: she's kind of obssesed with them and has never chewed or been rough with them, so I'm going to let her keep them! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/2-using-binkys#post-1959773 Tue, 25 Nov 2014 12:46:11 +0000 MrsRcCar 1959773@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@anonysquire: N is 25 months and still loves his wubbanub. He wouldn't take any other kind. He doesn't chew on them, we nipped that quickly. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/2-using-binkys#post-1959768 Tue, 25 Nov 2014 12:41:36 +0000 Mamasig 1959768@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@anonysquire: my son used his wubbanub until he was 15 months. He never ripped the plastic off. Though he did pull the stuffed animal from the binky part. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/2-using-binkys#post-1959725 Tue, 25 Nov 2014 12:24:15 +0000 MrsRcCar 1959725@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Both of my boys still use pacifiers. They both use wubbanubs. N loves his triceratops (he has 3, plus 3 other kinds) and E doesn't have a preference yet. E has a variety of his own. They still steal from each other anyway. I figure they both have the same germs so I try not to worry. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/2-using-binkys#post-1959723 Tue, 25 Nov 2014 12:23:22 +0000 anonysquire 1959723@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LuLu Mom: oh ya I saw that. Since we got teeth over here at 2 months, she's been using them 6 months too long. Is it because they will bite chunks off?</p> <p>@twodoghouse: ya that's true!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/2-using-binkys#post-1959718 Tue, 25 Nov 2014 12:20:53 +0000 twodoghouse 1959718@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>As far as some spit-swapping, I figure it's just inevitable with siblings? We just do rinsing under water whenever they'd trade pacis. But toys go in both their mouths and I'd be washing things all day if I washed every time they traded a toy and both had their mouths on it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/2-using-binkys#post-1959716 Tue, 25 Nov 2014 12:20:49 +0000 LuLu Mom 1959716@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@anonysquire: Just an FYI wubanubs are supposed to be used before teething (online says up to 6 months), so your DD might be ready to move up to another kind before baby comes. It might help keep it separate! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/2-using-binkys#post-1959709 Tue, 25 Nov 2014 12:14:19 +0000 anonysquire 1959709@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@twodoghouse: hmm, we currently use the wubbanubs right now too and I just figured we would buy the new baby his own set of wubbanubs. Maybe I'll look into the wipes. I can see zuma stealing binkys left and right! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/2-using-binkys#post-1959674 Tue, 25 Nov 2014 11:55:08 +0000 twodoghouse 1959674@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep! My twins used pacifiers for the first few months. At first we had a stash of pink and a stash of blue (and a few random green ones). Then we got wubbanubs so Blake had an elephant and Alice had a monkey. Honestly, once try could grab each other, they had each other's pacis in their mouth all.the.time. It was hard to resist the other baby's paci! Since yours are different ages, I'd try offering the new baby a different brand or style to keep them distinct. I do have pacifier wipes but just use that when we're out and something falls on the floor. I think they are made by Munchkin. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/2-using-binkys#post-1959669 Tue, 25 Nov 2014 11:51:57 +0000 anonysquire 1959669@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Has anyone ever had 2 kids using binkys at the same time? I'm wondering how this will work. Do you just have a separate set of binkys for each child? Or is there some sort of binky sanitizing cloths you can wipe so either kid can use them? Is that weird? </p>
