Mama is on a mission! She had a nightmare where Ms. Pandey’s teeth were sticking out like a rabbit’s, and guys were not willing to date her. All because of Ms. Pandey’s horrible thumb sucking habit. So every time the thumb was moved close to the mouth, a strong “No-no!” was uttered for 2 – 3 days, except when it was sleepy time. A lot of crying and fussing later, it seems to be working somewhat.

• Sometimes when no one is looking, the thumb still makes its way into the mouth.
• Sometimes, when the urge is incredible, the thumb is moved, the “no-no!” is recalled, and Ms. Pandey bursts into tears crying “No-no!, No-no!”
• In most other “bored-Anika” situations, the thumb is never used!

Lets hope Mama’s mission is successful, and the nightmare is negated.
