How do you stop a 9 month old..

from sticking their finger up their nose?

She started pointing a couple of weeks ago at what she wants. Now she keeps sticking her finger up her nose.



I assume there's no way to stop it?? People thought she was picking her nose yesterday. She isn't!! She just found something new

Aah bless her. Toby was doing that a few days ago but has stopped now. Now he is poking his fingers so far down his throat then chokes and is nearly sick and is coughing all the time which he thinks is very funny. Silly babies x

AFTER she puts her fingers up her nose?! Gross. Maybe there's something interesting up there that she wants?

LOL.. Colton does this too! He did it really fast one day, and it HURT so bad brought tears to my eyes!
He doesn't seem to care about his own nose though, however he HATES if someone else touches/wipes his nose! He throws a BIG fit!

lol... I dont think you can stop them... until they can comprehend that its gross...

Jasmine sticks (tries) her figers up my nose now lol...

Kyle went threw a stage of 'Picking' his nose, and just stopped himself once it stopped being a novelty. Maybe she'll grow out it just the same?

 

[JennTheMomma]

They'll pretty much just grow out of it. Hunter did that when he found his nose, and then he did that to his eye when he found that. Now he doesn't care about either, but will point to them if you ask him where they are.

Benn did this when he was about the same age i totally ignored it and he stopped doing it although now he does it and ignoring it doesnt work lol.
