my son stopped on his own as he bit the pacifier until got hole just few months back (he's 2½ years)🤣 hubby wanted to buy him new ones but I told him not to as I really wanted to wean him off. initially we didn't throw it away as my toddler would still want to see it or hold onto it beside him when he sleeps , but as days passed by , he totally forgot about it and threw it himself 🤣
now , whenever he sees other kids his age with pacifier , he just laughs at them when he forgot he was at that stage once 🥲 🤦🏻♀️
the only thing I can say is - try take it a step at a time. for me and hubby , we go along with the wean themselves method , so as long has toddler feels they're ready then we'll follow them. I don't instill to force change upon them. ☺️
