My Child the Thumb Sucker

MsGreene
by MsGreene

Nikki, we’re glad you found comfort in reading what Dr. Greene has to say about thumb sucking. Many parents feel comfortable with their child being labeled a “thumb sucker”, but what could be more natural than young babies learning to sooth themselves with the first thing at hand (pun intended) that fit into their mouths and is shaped somewhat like a nipple? And as an extra bonus, it doesn’t fall to the floor every few minutes requiring mom to pick it up and wash it off while baby cries.
