[tri-med] Re: drooling

kam drools mostly when she is focused on something.  it is like she forgets
to swallow.  if you can center her attention she starts swallowing again.
she is big into the fingers in the mouth right now and has been a bit
chapped around the lips.  otherwise we just mop her up with her dress skirt
and dont worry about it much.  i think fawna is right that it is a stage.

it has not been like some kids i have seen at her school with totally
excessive drooling where they have to put braces on so their fingers cant go
in their mouth.

some moms at conference use bandanas to soak up drools....we just wipe her
with her dress...how embarassing for kam i am sure!!!
