Hi,

my little Bella is teething and loves to chew. She loves her toys but she also likes my thumbs. I think it's only because she's teething which is why I allow it but I don't want to create a bigger problem when she's older. She only seems to do it with me and usually it's after we play, she likes to go in my arms and cuddle and curl up into a ball but then she just starts chewing on my thumb. Is it ok that allow her to chew on my thumb or am I setting up for a bad habit.

Thanks,
Ricky
