Adam has a stuffed puppy he won't sleep without. It has to be THIS puppy. I've tried others and failed miserabley. He sucks on the ears to fall asleep.
Last night his lips were so chapped that they crack open, and he ended up getting blood all over his pup. So, I stuck it in a pillowcase after this morning's nap and tossed it in the washer.
I DECAPITATED his lovey! Seriously, the head come off completely. I'm trying to sew it back together, but I fear he'll forever be named Frankenpup. I just hope Adam won't be scarred by Frankenpup's scarring.
Re: Oh.My.God. I killed his lovey.
Good luck! When you get a new lovey, sleep with it under your shirt for a night to make it smell like mom.

I just forked over $20 on ebay for one. It was a shower gift from a baby boutique out of town.
Those darn ebay people, preying on a mother's desperation.
In the mean time, Frankenpup will have to do.
Oh no! I'm just starting to lurk from 0-6, but I thought I'd try to reassure you. My lovey (a teddy bear) lost an arm when I was little, but I have no fear of one-armed bears.
Ahhhhh -- is that a one armed bear? RUN!!
Give us the link. We can probably find more for you, knowing the power of the Nest.

oh no!!! he won't notice the stitches
not this young.
my teddy bear (who i still have by the way), has stitches in the back of his head, and you can see them. black teddy bear with white stitches?!? hello, mom!
That's why I bought four identical bears to Daniel's favorite one!
Good luck
Sorry to hear that. I hope you were able to fix it. If not, I hope there is another you can purchase either at a store or online.
From my friend Susan, I got 3 identical lovey for DD. I have one for day care, one for her crib and one "just in case". Susan had 7 Peter the Rabbits for her son. She had it for the car, daycare, home, accidents, etc. She's keeping one "in the box" (i.e. new) for when he grows up I think.
DS likes her lovey, but I have to admit, I've been "pushing" that one a little more compare to her other toys. Because her other stuff animals, I only have one of because they are gifts. She seems to like all her soft toys equally so far, so I'm waiting to see what comes out ahead and so I can pick up a few more if possible.
