Ребенок теребит соски
A mother of a two-year-old child is seeking advice. The child constantly touches their nipples or belly button in various situations: when crying, watching cartoons, falling asleep, and even at night. The author understands this as a self-soothing method, especially against the background of stress from starting kindergarten. Talking, comforting, distracting, and attempts to remove the child’s hand do not help. The question is about what approach might be effective in this situation.
