Ds is 11 weeks (well, 12 weeks tomorrow and has started ducking his thumb... Now whilst thumb ducking I cute(ish) I also understand the damage it can do and the pure and simple fact of it is that you can take a dummy away you cant take a dummy away. He is ebf and he does occasionally use me as a comforter. I've tried using a dummy but he just immediately pushes it out. Is there anything that I can do??? Me and dh are quite up on it in that we'll take his thumb out and distract him with something else (is this even the right thing to do). Please someone tell me how to stop him x
