Use feeding pacifiers

My friend’s daughter stopped when she had a sore on her thumb from hand foot and mouth disease – maybe try a paint like nail bitter

Cool! It was interesting reading the comments on this!

My son fixed himself with this issue. Nan let him play with a set of tongs. He pinched his thumb in them, drew blood, too sore to suck. By the time it was better, thumb sucking was forgotten

Put some of that nail biting stuff on their thumb

I need this too, thank you!!

I am pretty sure there are things you can get from the chemist for this.

Hope this has been resolved for you.

Hope you managed to find the answer you were looking for.

What did you end up using?

teething toy, dummy, or rusk

Not sure what to tell you – my daughter still sucks hers – when one thumb gets sore she starts on the other one.

Ohh, I would be careful putting anything on a red cracked thumb, it might sting, if he doesn’t have a dummy maybe that could be an option to turn to.

Use the bad tasting nail polish you can get from the chemist and hopefully may stop it

Buy stop thumb or put a little soy sauce on it something. That does not taste great but will not hurt him

You can buy a stop stuck from the chemist which tastes awful you paint his thumb and its makes th not want to stuck it anymore. Or stop bit will do the same thing

I’m not sure if you can really stop it at 15 months, maybe just wait until he’s older, by which time he’ll probably have stopped doing it anyway.

At 15 months hes still young. I wouldn’t worry too much about it

In time they will stop Just a phase they are going through

I reckon they stop in their own time!
