Pregnancy Info HOME

My mom tells me that I was a little thumbsucker - until I came down with an infection along my cuticle that spread to my throat. (Gross - sorry!) I had to sit with my thumb stuck in salt water each day to help rid the infection. I was pretty germ-hating as a kid and that made such an impression that I couldn't suck my thumb anymore. Not sure how helpful that is - but if your little one is easily grossed out, hearing that story might help. Good luck!
