Make a decoction of wormwood and periodically wet your fingers - it's both antiseptic and bitter, just be careful to pick your starting point so it's not harsh before bedtime Good luck?

Wear these things on your hands like mittens without fingers so the baby won't scratch you can wear tiny socks. Who wants to lick a rag?

I wonder how they accustomed her in the maternity ward? In general, you need to constantly yank her or distract her with something. Otherwise she'll be in this habit for a long time.

Put mustard on your finger, or better yet, glue on it so she can suck it and wean herself off it.

Give birth to a boy, he'll lick his lips

how old is your baby? If he is up to 4 months this is just a sucking reflex, especially if he is a baby nurse, if he is older he might be teething, by about a year you can think about weaning

had it too, I did not pay much attention. Then my grandmother told me a frightening story that one man sucked-sucked as a child, so his finger remained smaller.

A child gets this habit from boredom or from stress of some kind.And how to wean him off, I don't know.I still chew on hangnails myself

couldn't teach this at the maternity home! Babies only about 3 months are learning to control their hands consciously! But finger sucking at a later age indicates that the child's needs are not being met Did you breastfeed? With such a problem it is better to consult a psychologist. If you remove only its manifestation as finger sucking, the neurosis may manifest itself in something else gnawing nails, gritting teeth or something else.

In the maternity hospital they could not accustom her to it. In general, try smearing something bitter on your finger and let her suck it. That's how I weaned my daughter.
