The best way to get her to stop is to not let her do it, no matter how sad she is about your restrictions. You've got to be the parent. Kellymom has some ideas to stop twiddling: http://www.kellymom.com/bf/older-bab...g-manners.html -Patty, mom of 1+2 |

I went with a more, uh, direct approach of saying, "no!" and moving away. Not fun, but heck, I couldn't stand it, and lo, both DDs figured out soon enough that this was A Bad Thing To Do. Caledonia |

Ha, I thought this was a troll (by reading the subject line) until I saw people were replying! How old is your daughter? I just said NO and put her hand down. My 3.5 year old's hand still wanders over to the other one, especially when she's really sleepy. She doesn't mess with the nipples but wants her hand to be touching the other breast. I just can't stand it, it bugs the hell out of me. Marie |

I had a terrible time with twiddling with my last one. People say, "Put him down," like it's so easy, but like your baby, it had become very important and comforting to him and it hurt his feelings terribly. When he was three or so I could reason with him about it. Anyway, with Lorelei I just never, ever let her touch my nipples. I mover her hand every time and she has never picked up the habit. Leslie |

I just can't stand it, it bugs the hell out of me. the kellymom site someone gave really helped a lot! She does this pinching thing... it's reallly annoying, but I'm trying to wait a bit and see if it is just a stage she is going through. Last night she started doing something that was even more annoying - almost asleep, the nipple started coming out and she chomped down with her new teeth to hold on to it... OUCH! Of course, with her being almost asleep (FINALLY), I wasn't about to yelp and she eased the grip. That was painful. Made the pinching pale in comparison! |

As soon as DS2 was born I put the "baby necklace" back on: three cylindrical fimo beads, strung on nice strong cotton cord (Thick!). Kinda like this one: http://www.hibidder.com/auctiondetails.php?id=140586 He still likes to rest his hand on the nipple that's not in use, but he mostly holds on to the necklace and yanks. -- Cheri Stryker mom to DS1 - 7 yrs, and DS2 - almost 6 months |
