Now my baby isnt sucking as much but when she does it is horrible. There's one time she hurt inside her mouth (little bit bleeding). I think its due to her finger nails. I wonder why my baby's nails grow so fast, i need to clip it like once a week?

Hi Taysty,
I also felt the need to control this when my kids were babies. Especially, when friends came and held their hands to greet them. I'm fine with this gesture but I can't help but think that germs were passed on.
Also, I did not want them to make this a habit. I've seen kids thumb-sucking until they're older and their teeth and lips were damaged.
What I did was play a game with their hands (patty-cake) or sing a nursery rhyme while clapping their hands to the beat.

tasty... i know english is not your first language, so please don't take this the wrong way...
Puke: vomit, be sick
Pew: the bench seat in a church
and a side note: the amount that she pukes out won't be significant. it looks like a lot, but it isn't really...
