We have a 10 month old, who LOVES her thumb, (specifically her left one) and it's what she uses to soothe herself. It's cute now, but my biggest fear is messing with her teeth as they start to come in. How long did your baby suck their thumb? And what did you do to stop it or did they stop it on their own?

My 3yo sucks her thumb and the dentist can tell
She only sucks it while she sleeps though so it's pretty hard for us to do anything. The dentist suggested putting band aids on her thumb at bedtime but I'm not ready to go there yet. It's such a comfort to her!and of course my 13 month old DS sucks his too. We're going to have some hefty orthodontist bills!
