So most of you all know that my youngest 3 have been avid thumb suckers...well i tried putting socks on Parkers hand which made him stop for 1 month then i have tried that stuff that you put on there thumbs, i think it is called thumbs-it..i have tried putting hot sauce on it..all of which he was able to wash off or suck off. we then spent 350$ big ones to put a contraption in his mouth that would make him stop and ..it did.....so on to Aubrey...well i have not been to worried over her cause she was not 24/7 so it has not been a big deal she has a REALLY bad cross bite so the dentist is going to put in a contraption for that anyway which would also fix the thumbsucking but of course that is 350$ and she might have to be older before insurance will cover the 850$ portion so ANYWAY my SIL jenn used this stuff awhile ago on her kids, told me about it , encouraged me to use it and i never did!...well the other day we were at her house and she was talking to Matt and they decided to put it on my girls fingers which i said PLEASE do because Aubrey BITES her nails now and it is sooo disgusting cause she does her toes sometimes too....anyway this stuff does NOT come off no matter how much they suck on it which they put it in their mouths once and it stays in there for like 5 -10 minutes! it is disgusting it made Haven throw up cause it activated her gag reflux! and aubrey cried for 30 minutes till i got her some juice......so i tried to wash it off for them because we were going camping yesterday and i did not want them all sad and it made me sad too! this stuff did NOT come off!!
while we were camping we used wipes alot too and of course it did NOT come off:) they went to bed with NO thumbs and of course every once in a while would forget and get some in there mouths which they would just spit and slobber for the next 10 minutes!! we got home today, gave them a bath and of course it is STILL on!
so in short i am SOLD this stuff cures it ~ they have gone half a day yesterday and all day today with no fingers in their mouths and i will be ordering this stuff online tomorrow..~~~~BTW i tried this stuff and it is DISGUSTING i think it tastes like pennies or something i cant quit figure it out but it stays on your tongue forever and is just plain BAD!
the girls are fine and on their way to a Spit thumb free world!!!! WAHOO!!
THANK YOU JEN!!!

Good Luck, what ever works right? I've never had thumb suckers but I think that would really stink!
I'm all over trying that stuff. Sweet!! Thanks.
LOL! That is not funny, but it is! This stuff worked wonders for my kiddo's, I'm so glad your going to use it and that it will work! Yay!
Interesting. I will have to try this on miss morgan. She is my thumb sucker! It sounds disgusting and if we can't wash it off, I can totally see how it works!
