Because she bites through them. She has been quiet in her crib but I am nervous. She is 2 and a half. Please give me tips on how to survive this?

Tell her she is so big and buy her a different comfort object like a hello kitty pillow or squishimellow that she chooses herself. Expect it to be hard but worth it in the end

Yup. Great advice.
I hope it goes smoothly! Luckily it hasn’t been bad with any of my kids but I’m going to have to do this soon with my youngest.

(I told my kids specifically that it was going to mess up their teeth if they didn’t stop using it. I wanted them to know there was a reason. Your reason may be different. It may be that it’s a choking hazard or not safe that they are biting through them.)

I always replaced with a new item to love, a squishmellow is a good idea.

Maybe try the Frida weaning system. My friends swear by it. I don’t use pacifiers but LOVE frida products, they’re amazing.
