3 month old and dummy dependancy


Advice please!I have a 12 week old baby girl, she’s a great sleeper at night (10 hours) super lucky for this however she can’t fall asleep without the dummy, this is fine however it’s a problem during the active sleep phase as she rocks her head from side to side quite vigorously and whilst doing so her dummy always falls out, then she’ll wake up and start crying for the dummy, it just takes a few goes of her falling into deep sleep and me going in to do a ‘dummy stick’.At night I can normally start playing dummy ping pong from around 3am every 30/40 minutes until she finally wakes properly at around 6am. In addition to this She’s starting to look like she’s going to be rolling very soon and we should be transitioning her from swaddling to having at least one arm out, i’m so apprehensive about this because her hand is going to go straight for her mouth and flick her dummy out, i’ve already tried this and she just went for the dummy every 5 mins 🙄She’s not finding her hands to be as soothing as having the dummy so we don’t know what to do... has anyone else experienced this and have advice??? via /r/Parenting https://ift.tt/2zd3V8l
