M.S.
AHHHH Been there with my middle son. At about 8 months we was finally able to roll around till he found it. He loves this one teddy bear and I would stick an extra paci in the armpit of it and at 2am when his fell out he would grab Bear and know there was another in there. I personally wouldn't take it from her yet but you are right, she is not learning good sleeping patterns and eventually might start waking up out of habit more than losing her paci. We just trucked through it and I never picked my son up or fed him, I just put the paci back in and fumbled back to bed. I did a few times leave 3 or 4 in his bed and that helped that there was one always in reach. ;) Good luck! Oh and it was a little hard when we did wean him off it but it was his main comfort item. At 18 months he was ONLY allowed his paci in bed and at 2 yrs I let HIM throw them away so he remembered they were all gone and that was a rough week but he bonded with a blanket which at 6 yrs he still loves.
