Dribbling thumb sucker

So my 1 year old constantly sucks her thumb and dribbles all down her sleeve or arm. She hates having a soggy sleeve so then wants to take her top or jacket off! Anyone else have this problem? How are you tackling it? TIA

Put a sticking plaster on her thumb (one of the rough, fabric types). She probably won't like sucking it and stop.
You could always take it off at night if you wanted her to have the comfort from it at bedtime.

Don’t put a plaster on it , she may manage to suck it off and swallow it / choke on it , you can purchase thumb guards / thumb gloves to try and deter thumb sucking .
