I did not dream it was going to work!
I have an extremely stubborn 3.5 year old who was refusing to consider giving up her paci. Tried this and it worked magically in under a week!

Can we make this a thread of people sharing their most amazing product?

Why are you even taking a paci at that age? I never saw or heard of a grown up using a pacifier. Sorry but not sorry. It's not an amazing product at all unless given to a 15 year old.

Just because she didn’t have a 15 year old to give it to doesn’t mean it wouldn’t work on a 15 year old

It also can make a very big difference whether paci is taken away before adult teeth start growing in or after. Good for you OP!

What in the world are you talking about?
Grown ups taking pacis? This is a recommendation for a baby/children's product

Exactly my point. Stop with this craziness of taking away a paci at this age. Unless the kid is 15 and still taking a paci then you can take it away.

3.5 is pretty old for having a pacifier. It's really not good for the jaw and teeth.

(This should be a spinoff, but why is it socially acceptable for a 3-4yo to have a pacifier but not to continue nursing?)
Thanks OP, I had a 4yo who could have really used this! We kept losing hers and left the only one we could find in the car over a 3-day Yom Tov. It was a hard Yom Tov but after it was over she was paci free. I'm glad to know there is a less traumatic option out there!

Still don't get your point- are you suggesting it's good to continue with paci at 3.5?
Also op wasn't suggesting what age to use this or anything remotely similar - this is a recommendation for a product that is helpful if/when needing to wear off of paci
Sounds like you never needed to, ok. Guess what, neither have I. There's still no need to be snarky!

Huh? It's not socially appropriate for a 3.5 year old to still be using a pacifier. Good for op for finding a good solution.

Do you have any better suggestions? My almost 7 yr old takes a pacifier. Only at night.
Her older sister, I took away the pacifier at 3, and she turned to her finger. Much worse..

See? That's exactly why I'm so against taking away a a paci. My married sibling still to date finds herself subconsciously with the tip of her finger in her mouth in her sleep. She tried every trick and gadget. 2 other siblings started taking their finger when the paci was taken away. They eventually gave up the finger but we'll ino their late teenage years. A finger you get married with, a paci you don't.

My son stopped by himself at 8.
I didn’t push him. He was ready.

There used to be a kids magazine called the Spotlight and they had a column called AMA
One of them was,
AMA I am a bubby and still have a paci.

So what are you suggesting? Not taking away the paci and therefore never outgrowing it? Like previous poster wrote, a bubby with a paci?

The roof of the mouth stimulates the vagus nerve. She can fix this with proper tongue posture not a pacifier.

So? My cousin's dog's neighbor's teacher's cat had paci taken away and it did help
