STMs do I need a Sofie??

mrsbtobe20122 · August 2014

I've been told by many people it's a must have for drooly teething babes, and we will be heading that way soon. What're your thoughts?

There are more chew toys out there than Sophie. Its up to you if you want your LO to nom on a giraffe

No, you do not need a Sophie.

We got one and I keep trying to give it to her. She doesn't seem to like or dislike it right now, I don't think she can hold it long enough or manipulate it enough to really nom on it yet. She prefers her receiving blankets or wash cloths right now.

For how much that darn thing costs I hope she does take it. I feel like a drug pusher trying to give it to her. "C'mon, all the other babies are using Sophie". Lol.

I'm looking at getting chew beads instead, DS noms on his winkel like no tomorrow. And his shirt. And now blankets.

We got one. She likes it already. She'll hang out with it and nom its ears.

We got one as a gift but I knew we'd get one for sure because all my friends with babies told me their kids love their Sophie's. DD just started taking an interest in hers.

You don't *need* one, but a lot of babies do love them.

DS loves it @ocoma! He can nom on the tube thingies and the square inside has something inside that makes a rattle noise when shaken.

ETA: its from Manhattan Toy

I've been giving it to him to hold on the changing table. Today he was biting it's back and shaking his head, cheetah-style.

I guess my question should've been:

Is Sofie worth the splurge? Hehe

danabsd · August 2014

Yes. 3.

danabsd · August 2014

I kid. No, we never got much use out of it.

That's up to you. You really won't know until you give it to LO. But the general consensus is that everyone can survive without it.

DS loves his. Although it literally looks like a serious make out session with her face. So maybe he's trying to master his game early?

alyssajanell5 · August 2014

My lo would much rather chew on a rag... Hasn't taken much to Sofie but we will see.

lmccarty123 · August 2014

My LO loves her sofie!

I have one of these and didn't even know what it was called! LO doesn't seem to have much interest in any toys right now - including his Sophie that my dog just ruined. But my MIL and I were in a book store looking at the "winkel" and a random mom walked by and was like, "that is the best toy, they can wack themselves in the face with it and it doesn't hurt", so my MIL immediately bought it.

ETA: fixing my damn auto correct.

Hahaha. Ds swing his hand today at lunch holding it sad knocked over dh glass of iced tea. It was hilarious. To me at least.

You get it from Chapters?

RachelCA29 · August 2014

@florassecret‌ Yes. Their baby section has everything!

We just got Sophie for our teething/drooling DS and he's in LOVE! He grabs her poor little neck in a death grip and sucks her face like there's no tomorrow! Poor Sophie!
I have found that washing her in scolding hot water makes her squeaker less loud each time.
