But she's great at taking it out! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-learn-to-put-the-pacifier-in#post-814994 Wed, 29 May 2013 10:07:50 +0000 ninja 814994@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DS figured it out around 6 months. He often takes it out, plays with it, then puts it back in.<br /> @googly-eyes: Glad there are other parents of soothie addicts. My son gets too excited when he sees his soothie! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-learn-to-put-the-pacifier-in#post-814966 Wed, 29 May 2013 09:59:34 +0000 bunnylove08 814966@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DD started to do it at 8 months. One night she let out a whine and I rolled over to find her paci and was going to put it in her mouth but she took it and put it in an fell back asleep. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-learn-to-put-the-pacifier-in#post-814951 Wed, 29 May 2013 09:52:56 +0000 ladyfingers 814951@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>He's 4 months and he can take it out or push it back in when it starts coming out, but not put it back in (which I wouldn't expect him to at this point anyway). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-learn-to-put-the-pacifier-in#post-814928 Wed, 29 May 2013 09:45:20 +0000 jmarionsmith 814928@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i think it was around 6 months when he figured it out. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-learn-to-put-the-pacifier-in#post-814921 Wed, 29 May 2013 09:43:14 +0000 googly-eyes 814921@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I know this is an old post but since there seems to be renewed interest... I think dd figured it out around 6 months. She is a soothie addict though! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-learn-to-put-the-pacifier-in#post-814913 Wed, 29 May 2013 09:40:58 +0000 MrsRcCar 814913@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>N is nearly 8 months old and can put his own pacifier in his mouth. He has a wubbanub paci. It is extremely helpful to him for to grab. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-learn-to-put-the-pacifier-in#post-814904 Wed, 29 May 2013 09:38:21 +0000 purrpletulips 814904@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DS figured this out at around 7 months. At times I wish he didn't know how because rather than going to sleep he'll take his paci out and throw it then scream because he doesn't have it anymore (he's learning bedtime stall tactics early). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-learn-to-put-the-pacifier-in#post-814854 Wed, 29 May 2013 09:24:36 +0000 Mrswonderwoman 814854@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm curious about this too! DS is almost 5 months, and he is getting closer and closer to figuring it out. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-learn-to-put-the-pacifier-in#post-282842 Wed, 05 Sep 2012 12:27:34 +0000 BabyBoecksMom 282842@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DD is 7.5 months and still can't do it herself. </p> <p>We only give her a pacifier at nap/bedtimes. If she wakes up, all we need to do is pop the pacifier back in and she goes right back down. I would love it if she could do that herself instead of having to do it 3-4x per night. :-) I thought I'm not sure if she's just not getting enough exposure to it during the day to figure it out on her own, or if it will just click for her around a certain age? </p> <p>How old was your LO when they figured it out? Did you help him/her with it? </p>
