DD1 sucked hers til she was 26 months, we had only one infection in that time and it was in the cuticle, we had to use betadine on it then rinse well. as for stopping her, we used sports tape on her thumb as we knew it wouldnt come off and it was uncomfortable so she couldnt suck it, it worked!!
as for the split, thats a tough one im afraid, is it a bad split??
the split isnt bleeding, but looks quite red and nasty, i did go to the chemist one day to see if there was something i could put on it to make her stop sucking on it but they were all 15 year olds working and i honestly didnt think there was a cream i was more just after some advice on how to stop it.
i might try that stuff that makes it taste bad.. but will that hrm her being as she's so younge?
