No soother please!


I just have to share our extensive soother collection. We have tried every soother available, in every texture, shape, size and colour. Textured silicone, like mommy's nipple - well, the marketing pitch does not convince the experts... That one got spit out just like the organic latex soother from Denmark, the regular NUK orthodontic, the extra small one, the berry shaped one... 

Nobody can say we didn't try, but Anouk prefers her two fingers. Even the little trick of putting the soother around those two fingers did not fool her:
 

All we can hope now is that she either won't suck on her fingers too much or that she'll outgrow it very quickly or maybe in a moment of luck she does discover the comforts of a soother.


But I'm not holding my breath and seriously thinking about a savings account for future orthodontist bills....
