My little one is 5 months old & sucked her thumb from day 1. She has developed eczema & scratches & I would always keep one hand covered & her thumb free but I just can't anymore & now have to keep two hands covered - but its hard to take her thumb off her. She WONT take the dodey / dummy!
What could I put on it? I'm tempted to dip a bit of honey on, but have heard thats really bad - but just so she would take it initially & get used to the suck - any tips???
