Hello everyone! My baby has been sucking his thumb for 2.5 months now. I understand that it's normal and part of his learning process, but I'm really worried about bacteria. I constantly wipe his hands, but I just don't know how to handle this phase properly to prevent him from catching germs from dirt. Any advice?

Don't worry too much 🫶
This is just a phase, you won't catch any bugs or illnesses.

Soon, not only will he lick his fists, but he'll also have more bacteria, which will strengthen his immune system.

So, don't let him rummage through the trash bins outside. 😁 Seriously, how do you think immunity develops? He needs those bacteria. There's nothing at home that could harm the baby — he isn't even crawling on the floor yet. 😊

Wash your hands with soap and water, and take care of yourself.

If you're disinfecting his hands with wipes, you're more likely to catch something or get involved with a drunkard. 🙃

You're worrying a bit too much. Your child needs to develop their immune system. If you're already so anxious now about what will happen when their teeth start coming in, and they begin grabbing everything with their hands, then crawling later on, you're overprotective. Don't raise your child in sterile conditions!

Just live peacefully... Immunity develops when bacteria enter a child's body.

Честно никогда не мыла руки сыну в такие моменты, да и сейчас тоже. Одно дело после улицы, но дома то. Чем больше контакта с внешним миром, тем крепче иммунитет. Хватит намывать ручки, только хуже сделаете, всю флору на коже убьете.

I've never washed anything. I think that those who frequently wipe or wash things may have a weaker immune system.

Have you heard the saying: every speck of dust is a vitamin for children? But sterilization can be more dangerous... The immune system needs to function properly 💪. The only thing I worry about is rotavirus, so we are vaccinated 🙏.
