I'm covered in hickeys!

post #1 of 5
Thread Starter 

I carry my 3-month-old DS around with me everywhere, and in the past couple days he's been just sucking on whatever part of me is handy while I'm doing chores.  I have four hickeys on my arm and shoulder, two on my chest, and one on my cheek!  He's also been grabbing my fingers and sticking them into his mouth to bite on.  I'm not sure what's causing it (teething?), but I think it's pretty funny, but also kind of embarrassing, haha.

 

Anybody else having to explain weird bruises all over the place?

Hahahaha, yeah, Cecilia does that too!

 

I have one of these necklaces and it really helps to give her something to play with and chew on. There are also these gorgeous ones that might be my next purchase!

Oh yes! My little one used to do this all the time when she was 3months! lol

She would suck on our shoulders or collar bone area when we rocked her to sleep! lol  Several times she left big bright hickeys on my hubby's neck/collar bone area and he had to go to work with them showing...he was so embarrassed! She doesn't do it anymore.  I also have one of those teething bling necklaces. :)

Oh yes, we went through this too!  Even better was when he started sucking on his OWN arm, so it looked like we were abusing him.  I remember it being a brief phase.  He still likes to chomp on fingers and whatever toys he can get in there but the sucking stopped.

DD (7 months) still loves to suck on my skin whenever she can get away with it!
