At what age did you introduce a lovey?

6 months when we did sleep training. I guess actually maybe 5 months? But she wasn't interested in it until 6 months when she started snuggling with it at night.

Around 6/7 months we started presenting it during nursing sessions and the bedtime routine. It took awhile to totally attach but now he's hooked!
ETA: it's an angel dear lovey

6 months, when we stopped swaddling. She switched her affections from her bear lovey to her blanket once we gave the blanket to her to sleep with at 11/12 months old.
It's been almost 2 years... that poor blanket is in sorry shape. lol

LO is 12 months. One day she grabbed her fleece pajamas and started snuggling them to her face. I grabbed an Angel Dear lovey from the closet and she's been attached ever since (a few weeks now).

He was allowed to sleep with him (angel dear lovie) around 7.5 months when he could crawl. Previously he played with it but didn't sleep with it.

6 months when we sleep trained and took the pacifier away. It's an angel dear lovey- 14 months later and she still loves it!

I want to say around 4 months, the first time we sleep trained.
She didn't become super attached until around 10 months when she started going to daycare. I mean, she liked it & snuggled it, but if it vanished she wouldn't have cared. Now she is definitely in love with him!
