hi everyone,
My DS is 5mo and since he discovered his thumbs he has no interest in his dummy. He uses his thumbs to put himself to sleep but they have recently become red, dry and scaley. Should I try to stop him from sucking his thumbs? It would be such a shame as he likes it so much! Is there anything I can put on them while he is asleep that would be fairly safe if he started to suck them again?
TIA
