Actually, in this case I am 12 years old and I unfortunately suck my two middle fingers, but my parents just think I do it on accident subconsciously every night but really it’s just me. At sleepovers and stuff I can stop but when I’m at home , I always do it every night. I’ve tried stopping on numerous occasions but i just can’t, I hope this method works, thank you for helping!

We tried just about everything for our daughter who started sucking on her two middle fingers about 4 months old. We fooled her with Nipit becasue it uses the elbow to stop the habit, not something on the finger. It saved my husband and I so much aggravation because we were not constantly wondering if she was taking the glove off and engaging in the habit when we were not looking.

I’m so happy you found a solution like that! And that you didn’t have to break her fingers. 🙂 My 8 year old sucks her lip all the time. She started doing it probably two years ago and has gotten worse as time has gone on. I wish there was a glove for that! It’s affecting her teeth. Congratulations on your success!

Place a clean piece of gauze into the gap in your child s mouth to stop any bleeding. Help your child rinse his mouth out after the bleeding stops.
