I'm going nuts!

I know it's just a baby thing...but it's starting to make me crazy! Every little thing Taylor finds on the floor she puts in her mouth!! I vacuum every other day now, but of course stuff gets on the floor. When shes crawling around she finds every little thing and it goes right in her mouth. How do you break this habit? I fish stuff out of her mouth a million times a day!!!!!

I know I just made it sound like my floor is really dirty, but I swear it's not.

that is why i vacuum every day. Chris is still doing it. drives me nuts

I know what you mean, it just doesn't matter what it is, he will put it in his mouth! It's about to drive me crazy too, and the independence...UGH!!!

When they are that little you can't really break them of it. It's how they explore things. Just keep a good eye on her lol

Ethan does it too and has for awhile. I vaccuum everyday as well but of course he still infds stuff. Now tho he is starting to put some of it in the trash or hand it to me. If I hand it back it means he can have it and he gets excited. If I dont then he get s sad pouty look on his face. he still puts most stuff in his mouth but is getting better

Gwen does it. It doesn't bother me. *shrug* Aiden never did it, so I find it really funny now that she can always find a Cheerio on the dining room floor

i just told madison to spit it out if i saw her put something in there. once she figured out that if she spit it out on her own i wouldn't stick my fingers in there she complied

just think, once she's over this there will be other things she will find to annoy you with

My kids use to do the same thing when they were babies

I know it's a baby thing, but fishing stuff out of her mouth a hundred times a day gets frustrating because I am SO scared of her choking on something.

The spit it out thing sounds like a good idea. She hates it when I stick my fingers in her mouth, but oh well!

How cute is that?!? Taylor will hand it to you sometimes, but not a lot. But then when you try to take it from her, she pulls her hand out of reach.
