In Praise of the Dummy (pacifier, paci, dum-dum, binkie et al) Recently I have been spending time with my dummy. I have been surprised at just how useful this little piece of rubber and plastic actually is. As a baby mummy would slip in my dum-dum (what she called it) to soothe and ease my distress, it had never really occurred to me to use it now as an adult. Through these pages I know quite a few readers do so… but it hadn’t occurred to me why they are so special, or perhaps more to the point, why they aren’t used more on a daily basis. # Think of how many biros and pencils would be relieved of their chewed and disgusting ends? How exams would be a lot less stressful if we sucked on our pacis as we turned over that first page? Perhaps taking a driving test would be improved with the addition of a dum-dum? When those interminable hold-ups happen on our roads, just think how much less aggravating they’d be whilst spending that frustrating time waiting, sucking on a pacifier? Maybe, when surrounded by bills and receipts as you fill in your yearly tax return, the slurping on a dummy might make it so much better; or at least focus the mind? I’m not sure if every stressful situation would be improved with a dummy; for instance an army going into battle might look strange doing so whilst sucking away… but there again??? How much easier it would be to fill a bath but instead of lighting several scented candles to help relax and unwind, you simply popped in a paci? Don’t tell me you need that glass of chilled white wine, it’s merely a substitute for sucking on a dummy. Who’d have thought that Maggie Simpson was the sage who knew that: There is not a problem that cannot be improved by sucking on a dummy. Kojak didn’t suck on his lollipop for affectation he used it as a replacement for his paci. So, as pharmacies and stores stock adult nappies, diapers and plastic pants… (thank you very much) then I think they should (perhaps by law) also have to stock adult dummies. So let’s be more open and adventurous with our pacis, more creative and confident with our dummies and make sure there is - Suckcess for each and every one.

I often wonder what the bedtime routine is for out ABs, especially while I am being readied for nighty night. The following is my typical routine: On our bed I always see the following when it is time for night time diapering that occurs around 7:00 to 8:00 pm.. Laid out is my sleepers. My wife especially likes my baby-pants footed sleepers with the locking, zipper that goes from my neck to nearly my ankle. The sleepers are laying under my thick cloth night diapers and on top of them is an adult changing mat with pink bunnies. Nearby will be fresh pink print plastic baby panties and a NUBY 10 oz. baby bottle filled with warm infant formula. I will lay down on the diapers. My wife will put the baby bottle nipple into my mouth and then pull my plastic baby panties down, unpin the diapers I am wearing and have me lift my butt, she pulls then out and puts them in one of my diaper pails. Then she pulls the changing pad out, leaving the soft fresh diapers. For bedtime she lays out a Purity 4 layer flat diapers on top of it. She then lays another one folded length wise in 4ths. Finally she places another one on the top of all making very thick diapers.

I got a selection of new nuk5s recently and for some reason, they seem different, as if the rubber nipple is different, both in thickness, and in softness even compared to a baby binky. The rubber seems thinner cause its more translucent than my baby binkies.
