She'll sometimes ask for it when she's upset but she knows she can rest with it in her room. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-older-lo-3-still-addicted-to-their-lovey#post-2417319 Mon, 11 Jan 2016 15:27:34 +0000 kodybear 2417319@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>yup! i don't have a problem with it except that she sucks on it... hopefully her dentist doesn't mention anything about weaning </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-older-lo-3-still-addicted-to-their-lovey#post-2417313 Mon, 11 Jan 2016 15:25:27 +0000 rachiecakes 2417313@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh yes, he asks for it when he's sleepy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-older-lo-3-still-addicted-to-their-lovey#post-2417300 Mon, 11 Jan 2016 15:19:49 +0000 hellobeeboston 2417300@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>no. its still hanging around but i dont think he cares about it anymore. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-older-lo-3-still-addicted-to-their-lovey#post-2417294 Mon, 11 Jan 2016 15:17:22 +0000 BeachMama 2417294@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep, my 3.5 year old is very attached. I wouldn't mind so much if she didn't suck/chew on it, so it gets super nasty. But it's really only for bed time and for comfort when she needs it. I try to tell myself she (hopefully) won't still be chewing on it in college! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-older-lo-3-still-addicted-to-their-lovey#post-2417118 Mon, 11 Jan 2016 14:02:18 +0000 cheesetomywhine 2417118@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My DD is 3.5 and still has hers. She uses two blankies to snuggle...and will borrow her little brothers is she is too lazy to go get hers. They each have a designated one for the car as well. No intention of taking it away! She also sucks her thumb still. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-older-lo-3-still-addicted-to-their-lovey#post-2417107 Mon, 11 Jan 2016 13:56:51 +0000 MamaBehr 2417107@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DD still has hers, she isn't *as* attached but still loves it, and she'll be six in March. Why would someone take a lovey away? </p> <p>I also had my blankey until I was married, where it disappeared. We think our dog ate it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-older-lo-3-still-addicted-to-their-lovey#post-2417094 Mon, 11 Jan 2016 13:52:03 +0000 lamariniere 2417094@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My two both sleep with their lovies and we also take them when we travel. I also have no intentions of taking them away! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-older-lo-3-still-addicted-to-their-lovey#post-2417084 Mon, 11 Jan 2016 13:46:49 +0000 skipra 2417084@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Is 3 considered old for a lovey? My guy has 4 that he sleeps with but one is his extra special friend. He got him as a present when his brother was born which I think is so sweet! I wouldn't dream of taking him away. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-older-lo-3-still-addicted-to-their-lovey#post-2417071 Mon, 11 Jan 2016 13:43:12 +0000 Bao 2417071@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Both of my girls have to have their blankies when going to bed, traveling anywhere, or if we go over to someone's house. We don't bring them into stores and it doesn't go to school with LO1 but they have them around a lot, they definitely don't stay in their beds when they are up. It doesn't bother me though, I actually had a blanket until I was...we will just say old. I have no intention of making them ever give it up, since it comforts them so much! </p>
