I always was grossed out as a kid when my Mom did this, haha. And swore I'd always use a wipe or something. But I didn't have anything handy today and my 2 year old's face was covered in peanut butter cracker so...whatev! Licked my thumb and cleaned her up. Ha. She didn't seem to care.

Same here. I always thought it was gross and now I do it all the time lol
-
Ew, no, i still think it's gross!
-
If I don't have anything to wipe with, I'll do it!
DS doesn't mind, neither do I. I birthed him out of my uterus/vagina. What's a lil spit?
-
Only if absolutely necessary. I usually have wipes handy though.
-
Ha! I just did this yesterday and swore I would never do it. Actually there is a lot of things that I said I would never do before I had kids but that sure all changed once kids came.
-
I don't, only because his skin is always cracked from eczema and I feel weird about my saliva getting into the cracks. Plus it's kind of like the touch equivalent of nails on a chalkboard for me!
-
I mean... she gets her spit/drool on me all the time..... lol.
If I have a burp cloth or wipe or paper towel handy I opt for that, but I've totally done it.

So my one parenting thing I said I'd never do before I had kids was to spit shine my kids' faces.
I have never done it, but our nanny did. One of the many things that ended our relationship.

I need to put wipes back in my car for this reason. This morning at daycare drop-off, I realized LO (3.5 yo) didn't wipe her face after brushing her teeth. Toothpaste dries white. Started with spit, but there was too much. We got one of her sister's wipes when we got in the building to finish the job up.

No! Never. My mom always did and I'd gag every time. It was so nasty! I'll use a wipe or their own drool since they are both teething. Gagging at the thought of spit shining their faces! Bleh

I've never done it. I can see having to if it's an emergency, I suppose.
