Finger Sucker--No More???

We've been fighting the finger sucking battle with Anna for a while now. 
 
Tried painting her finger nails and using the prettiness as a motivation. 
Didn't work!
 
Tried nasty tasting finger nail polish.
Didn't work!
 
Tried band aids. 
Worked for a few days and then she decided sucking on a band aid wasn't so bad after all.
 
 Our latest attempt has been sports wrap covered in duct tape and topped off with a sticker--followed by a glove duct taped to her pj's at night and nap time. 
 
So far, we have had success for SEVEN days!! 
 
We've even down sized to just a band aid again during the day. 
 
Woohoo! 
 

They say it takes 14 days to break a habit.  We are half way there!! 
 
Way to go Sweet Heart!!  We are super proud of you!
