maybaybay (1336.4 days ago) my lil girl took a nu nu until 3 mths. then started sucking her 2 fingers, i tried to give her the nu nu but she only wanted her fingers especially when tired, now shes 3 almost 4 still sucking her same 2 fingers not so cute anymore but i read its ok they usually stop on their own and its ok as long as they stop by age 5, but its hard gettin her to quit and shes always doing it even if she plays in the dirt its kinda a bad habit but i believe once shes around other kids and see they don`t do it she`ll stop on her own, i don`t mind but my hubby hates it and makes her stop but she always does it again out of habit!!!!!

scruz (1336.6 days ago) My daughter had to have her soothie pacifier until she got her first tooth( 6 months) and then she refused it, now she cuddles and nurtures her blankie (very cute). But she doesn`t chew or suck on anything which is a big relief. We had to be persistent with the pacifier at first and even hold it for her. She wanted it but could not keep it in. EditDelete
RobinG (1336.7 days ago) I found the soother brands harder to stay in versus mam because the shape of the nipple ~ and the mam newborns are a bit smaller or premiee, try those for size too :) EditDelete
RobinG (1336.7 days ago) My first two wantd the pacifier my last one has fingers (or his satin blanket which I strongly encourage ~ it is what it is, you cant make them prefer one over the other so I`d let it be. There are pros and cons to both and those neices and nephews in my family that preferred fingers did just fine. EditDelete
kathleen (1336.9 days ago) my daughter has hated having a dummy, i have tried all different shapes and sizes and she just spits them out. when she was younger she was always putting her fingers in her mouth when she was getting upset or restless so i use to take them out and give her a comfort blankie instead which she started 2 rub between her fingers or around her face and she even sucks on the corner of her blankie instead of her fingers. sometimes she still put her fingers in her mouth if she were hungry but its not very often at all.
