thanks for the advice,
last night ella woke once and reece twice both times was because they wanted there dummys,now they cry them selfs to sleep there dummys fall out so they dont go to sleep with them,the problem is they cant find them in the night,
i will do what u said and put more dummys in the cot so they might be able to find them,,
i am thinking of trying to take the dummys of them when there about two,but at the min as am on my own i find it easyer to give them a dummy when there moaning or tired,it makes my life abit easyer

hi, Leo still wakes for his dummy. Sometimes he finds it himself, sometimes it gets stuck under him or some such.
I tried putting more dummies in his cot, but actually found him waking to play with them   ::) but i did the same with DD and she didn't play with them. I also tried attaching his dummy to his outfit (can be attempted if you have the right size cord to attach and only over 8 months or so) but it didn't work, as he'd end up on his tummy or side and it would get pulled out or stuck under him. 

But realistically he still wakes once or twice, even if just for a dummy or a cuddle.  ::)

hi,am not that concerned now am going to leave them with one dommy each,like u said most of the time reece is lieing on his and ellas is normally on the floor,
but since they have been on there own and i just go in put there dummys back in and leaving them there now only waking about 2-3 times,last night reece didnt wake at all and ella only woke once,
compared to what i was doing sometimes up 15-20 times it doesnt bother me now if i have to go in and put a dummy in,
thank you very much 4 ur advice
hugs and loads more hugs

cool! sounds like you got some good sleep last night! I'm finding at the moment that if Leo does keep sleeping I end up waking at some stage and then needing to go to the toilet anyway  ::)

here's to more good sleep in the future  :)
