[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I had a thumb sucker, there doesn’t seem to be as much of a stigma with a 3yo thumb sucker ad there is with s 3yo with a paci in her mouth. Anyway, I would say sometime around 3, almost 4. Our dentist said DD was changing the shake of the roof of her mouth so needed to stop. We got her to cut down to naps and bedtime. Then did a huge bribe to get her to stop at those times. It worked. [/quote] My kid would frequently switch to his thumb whenever we tried to take the paci away. I was unsure if one was better than the other, as far as tooth health goes. Dentist was surprisingly unconcerned about it, as long as it stayed a 'only at bedtime' sort of thing. I just feel super awkward when my son stays the night over with family or even grandparents etc, and they find out he's sleeping with a paci still at his age. [/quote]
