Dear List(s)!
Just looking for a little bit of general advice on
an old debate!
I have a six month old baby cousin
[very cute!] she has taken to sucking her thumb as she is starting to get
some toothy pegs! and her mum is not in favour of giving her a dummy. I was
wondering what opinions are on this? I would think that sucking thumbs could
effect tooth development and the direction/position in which they grow, as well
as forming a hard to kick habbit in todlers, but have also heard interesting
points against dummies.
Any thoughts!?
Thanks in advance!
Jessica.
