Help! Ditched the Paci

Christina

I noticed my daughter’s palate is really high & narrow & her teeth are narrowing a bit also. The pediatrician said we could get rid of the pacifier in the summer because we are in a bit of a transition & staying in a hotel temporarily. Well, I’m too worried to let it go on any longer. My hubby took her out of town for the weekend because I had to work & having a toddler cooped up in a hotel room is no good. He took her to be with his parents a few hours away. The last she had the pacifier was on Thursday night briefly. They came back last night & it was a nightmare. I ended up balling just as much as she did. I maybe got 3 hours of sleep & she got about 5 hours. She cried for hours & I am so worried we are going to get kicked out. The hotel almost didn’t let us stay on the top floor because of her (my husband insisted on us being on the top). She ended up sleeping in the bed with us, where as before, she was sleeping through the night in her pack & play. Nothing was working to get her to calm down. So how long does this last? My hubby was really short with me & told me to stop shushing her, I’m assuming because he hasn’t had any sleep in the last 4 days. She is also getting 2 molars in. She has a stuffed bear & a water bottle that she likes to sleep with but she won’t have anything to do with any teethers. I am a zombie today & don’t know how much more I can take. I don’t want to cave & give it back to her. I just don’t know what to do. Pleas give me your tips and encouragement!
