My Little Carter Bug loves to suck his thumb! He is addicted to it, I have never had a thumb sucker before, you can take away a paci, a thumb, nope, so how do I break the addiction? My doctor says to start trying now, but I feel like he is so little, he can have it for a little while longer, or am I creating a monster????? When it is time, what do I do, I can't exactly take it away, he suggested putting socks or something over his hands, ya right, he would rip them right off!? I encourage the paci, he will take it at 1st, but once he loses it he goes right for the thumb! Oh No!! BAby #3 has StuMpeD HiS MaMa!
I've always read not to worry about the thumb sucking until they older...that most kids quit by the time they are 3 or so. Shenzie bear sucks her thumb at night and naps when she is cuddling baby bear. Hopefully she'll outgrow it, because really...socks on the hands ISN'T going to work
