This morning she was super happy when she finally found it and sucked away until she fell asleep :happy: . She's been trying again most of the day, but hasn't been successful...so she just sucks on her fist. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-baby-find-their-thumb#post-868836 Wed, 19 Jun 2013 19:01:45 +0000 MrsF 868836@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't remember when she found it for the first time, but at 8 months she'll consistently suck it when she's ready to go to sleep. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-baby-find-their-thumb#post-868829 Wed, 19 Jun 2013 18:59:59 +0000 shopaholic 868829@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>K was frustrated and working on it for weeks too!

She was about 10/11 weeks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-baby-find-their-thumb#post-868717 Wed, 19 Jun 2013 18:12:33 +0000 autumnlove 868717@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Around 3.5 months </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-baby-find-their-thumb#post-868716 Wed, 19 Jun 2013 18:11:54 +0000 Corduroy 868716@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My LO is almost 4 months and she just found her thumb this week. 80% of the time she still sucks whatever fingers find her mouth first. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-baby-find-their-thumb#post-868710 Wed, 19 Jun 2013 18:09:05 +0000 JerricaBenton 868710@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>7 or 8 weeks I think. I know she had found it by the time of her 2 month appointment. It's still her favorite toy!</p> <p>ETA: She still sucks other fingers too, though. She sucked her thumb since then but not exclusively - maybe I'm misunderstanding :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-baby-find-their-thumb#post-868708 Wed, 19 Jun 2013 18:09:03 +0000 travellingbee 868708@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>About 11-12 weeks he was able to purposefully get it in. Before that it was random. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-baby-find-their-thumb#post-868705 Wed, 19 Jun 2013 18:05:48 +0000 aprk 868705@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Around 9.5 weeks, A just started shoving his whole hand in his mouth. I don't think he cares much about the thumb yet ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-baby-find-their-thumb#post-868703 Wed, 19 Jun 2013 18:04:51 +0000 MrsRoo 868703@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine is 8 weeks, too, and sometimes she gets it, but most of the time she just drools all over her hand and scratches up her face.. I feel like she's close though! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-baby-find-their-thumb#post-868693 Wed, 19 Jun 2013 17:55:23 +0000 sslm 868693@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No one? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-baby-find-their-thumb#post-868392 Wed, 19 Jun 2013 15:53:58 +0000 sslm 868392@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Madeline has been working on this for weeks!!!
