Please also see the amazon website for \" MAVALA Stop for Nail Biting and Thumb Sucking\" which has very good reviews compare to \" Thum\" . I suggest to you the Mavala because of good reviews and it says in the review that using 1 or 2 days will stop the habbit instead of using 1 or 2 weeks with Thum. Please note that Iam not a doctor and its upto you to use these liquids.

Hi,

My son also used to do the thumbsucking when he was hungry or sleeping for the first one year. I found one solution in RiteAid(USA) or u can find it in Amazon which helped me get rid of this habbit for my son. Its called \" Thum\" . Directions on that bottle mentions about only using 2 times a day. But it doesnt work like that. Apply every one hour and before going to sleep on the finger for the first two days. If possible, pls apply during night, if he is keeping during nights. Within two days he has stopped 50%. After two days apply every 3-4 hours. And I did for 2 weeks in strict schedule and after 3 weeks, he didnt kept his thumb. Iam relieved now, as I know its so hard to break this habbit.


Its upto u to use the liquid with chemicals which are safe to use and also the directions to use.
