Keep in mind that thumbs may take a little longer, it's a process. At this age, it's often about breaking a habit. Good preparation is important to increase the chance of success.
Below are some tips you can use:
70% of the children immediately accept the Machouyou and no longer ask for the baby teat.
The other 30% of the children need some time to get used to it. Machouyou is another “weird thing”. Prepare well and don't forget to sign up for tips during your order, we are happy to help you!
On average, the process takes +/- 3 months for a full natural recovery.
More than 100,000 children have already been successful with thumbs & the pacifier stopped with Machouyou!
1. Wash the Machouyou well under the tap before using it for the first time.
2. Place the flat part between the teeth
3. Tongue against the palate
4. Close the lips
5. For the parents: inform him/her that the Machouyou is held between the teeth. Do not bite or crunch it.
We recommend staying with it for the first +/- 5 minutes to make sure it is not chewed. The silicone is flexible for wearing comfort and promoting the natural jaw & teeth position.
If it is bitten regularly, the Machouyou can be damaged, which would considerably shorten the life of the Machouyou.
Let your child wear the Machouyou for at least 1 hour during the day (for example in front of the TV, while coloring, doing puzzles, etc.) and let him/her sleep with it at night.
