Scratch mitts

[MrsNormanBates]

What age did you stop using them? Ds is 12 weeks and still using them at night - I mainly use them at night to stop him sucking his hands as this tends to wake him up for some reason. No mitts at all when he's awake.

Is 12 weeks too old for scratch mitts now? Should I ditch them?

iirc I put them on my dc until they caught on to how to get them off ds2 was the smartest of my lot, he found out how to put end of mitt in mouth and pull ... dd loved the feel of them and would only settle with them on at one point I don't think there's a "right" answer tbh, just be aware to keep the babys nails short once you stop using them. baby with big scratch across face is not a pleasant discovery in the morning.

We used the baby gros with the built in mitts at the end of the arms (we got our from next and Sainsburys).
Much easier imo
