Taglet Question
Q: I bought my daughter the taglet but how do i get her to use it? She is 3months old now. When i put her to bed i give her the taglet but she does not do anything with it yet.
A: Until 3 months old, many babies don’t hold the Taglet, or anything else either, because developmentally they are not ready to use their hands to manipulate objects. At around three months old, your baby can start to hold a blankie. Start to put it on your shoulder so she can lay against it and snuggle into it when you comfort her. In time she will begin to associate the Taglet with your comfort and use it to sooth herself.
I started giving my son the taglet to hold while I was breastfeeding him. When he was finished feeding he would fall asleep snuggling it. He absolutely loves that blanket.
