Soothing Techniques




From the time Justus could coordinate himself, he started sucking his thumb. That and his white blanket with the "messy corner"are the ways that he settles down or soothes himself. Haven on the other hand, is not so typical. She, from the beginning, chose neither thumb nor pacifier. Instead she would lick her crib sheets. Today that is modified to putting her blanket up to her mouth and licking it. Whatever works - I guess!

You are correct. Little ones will stop when it is no longer needed.
I love you,
