Sleeping with a dummy/pacifier

[toddler82uk]

A question for abies who like to sleep with a dummy/pacifier that when you try and sleep that how do you breath with it in ie from your mouth or nose ? just because when i fall asleep with mine in my mouth in the mornings i wake up and it sticks to my teeth....

so wondering what other people do

 

[OldBaby]

I always breath with my nose while sleeping so my paci doesn't affect my breathing. Usually when I fall asleep with my paci, I find i fallen from my mouth in the morning.

 

[LunaCat]

Definitely nose. Mouth breathing with a paci would end in drooling for me. Ick >.<

 

[Gaius]

Usually when I try sleeping with my paci, I wake up and my pillow is soaked in drool and sometimes it takes a while to find said paci.

 

[ZombifiedKitty]

Either through the nose or half and half. Some nights I can sleep with my paci other nights I put it aside just as I'm falling asleep.

If by ick you mean awesome then yes. Drooling is the best.

 

[leffykit]

Mouth breather, though half the time I wake up with it under me or in my hand in the morning unless I manage to sleep on my back all night

As possibly squicky as it might seem, drooling makes me feel more babyish. >o>

And when I go to sleep with my paci, I breath through my nose, but when I wake up, I usually find myself breathing through my mouth, with the paci barely staying in, if I'm lucky. : P

Nose with a bit of mouth. If I'm congested it's hard for me to sleep with one since I can't easily draw a full breath through the front of the NUK.

Now how would one go about cleaning a pacifier? Just water?

Oh, and like babibear said, sucks to sleep with a sinus problem because you;ll have much difficulty breathing...

 

[Siege89]

I breath throguht my nose. An if my nose get plugged durg the night I will spit it out, otherwise its in all night.

As far as cleaning a Paci warm/hot water, and a latex safe soap.

an like i have said in other threads, I will wake up if mine falls out.

I'm a big time mouth breather, so I've had a lot of trouble sleeping with a paci myself. I feel like i'm being choked if I'm sleeping and breathing through my nose. X.x I'm slowly getting used to it though. xD Lying on my side tends to help a bit actually

I managed to take a nap with my paci today. It was just an hour, but it managed to stay in :3

 

[Martin]

Nose, with a little bit of mouth. I spit it out but that's just before I wake up.

 

[lilboybloo]

I wash my paci with just water. usually in the bathroom sink, just rub the nipple with my thumb until I can hear it squeak I'm fairly sure their dishwasher safe too, Iv tossed mine in once or twice with my baby bottles just cuz im lazy

If your paci falls out at night, you may want to invest in a bigger paci whenever mine falls out, I wake up with my thumb in my mouth. just hate having to track it down again, It makes me fussy when I cant find my paci.

I am not a fan of the drool It makes things cold and wet

This is why you use drool to water your plants.

 

[mizzycub]

I actually suck my thumb usually, but it is more or less the same thing. I don't know how I breathe. I imagine I do it through my nose but I have never really paid attention to it. It just sorta happens and I don't suffocate. Most people will just breathe without thinking about it, whether they use mouth or nose or whatever. But I would imagine, unless I have a bad cold, I use my nose.

Also - you are now in control of your breathing. You have to consciously breathe in and breathe out, and think about it.

OD on an opiate and you can experience this wonderful feeling. I hear it's quite torturous.

Whenever I sleep with my paci, I breath through my nose, considering my mouth has other obligations at the moment. Whenever I wake up it's usually on the floor, under a pillow, etc. I'm working on keeping it in my mouth all night, but that seems a bit far off.
