Gina, I'm in complete sympathy with your situation. I've spent the last 2 weeks getting my 26 month old boy off the boobie. It's been a nightmare.....and no amount of talking through it helped. Sorry to say. I resorted to polar neck/scarf/coat & sticking to my guns. There have been daily tears & tantrums and refusals to eat, but we are out the otherside now. My first boy only had about 4 days of this behaviour, so it's been quite a shock and very tiring. My daily saving grace has been daddy (if he's around at bed time) putting him to bed, so my son doesn't get a chance to insist on his nightly fix. That was so helpful. And last night I put him to bed without coat & had loads of cuddling without the mention of boobie. Hooray! Sorry to suggest you may have a horrid 2 weeks ahead of you.....Good Luck. Thanks for bringing up the subject on the forum too... Mitch
