Remember what we were dealing with??
These delicious two fingers.
Well, as you know, the dentist had recommended warned me that if she didn’t stop, her bite would be needing major surgery. $$$$$$.
And as you remember, we started the ceasing process. What incentive would she chose?
Drum roll…..
Yes, folks. A Peppa Pig backpack.
Now, she did not stop immediately. It was H.A.R.D! She thought she could stop, but each night, she went right back to her fingers. She would even hide it.
During the week, we received a card and pic from her dentist, Dr. “Vee.” This was a kicker!
Finally, I had to tell her that it had to come from her! She had to want to quit.
When she would stop, she’d be so proud of herself!!
It’s been 3 days since her last sucking. She just holds Baby to her lips and for her, that fills her need.
And there is much rejoicing with her new Peppa Pig backpack.
I’m so proud of her. She set her mind to it and accomplished a goal.
