I never had this with my other kids and find it weird. Why would a two year old be pleasuring herself and how does she know about it? She lies down everywhere and anywhere with her hands under her and rocks back and forth and makes sounds.
Anyone else have this?

She does it because it feels good. She knows about it the same way she knows about her feet and hands--exploring her body. Even though not every toddler does it, it is normal.

You can start teaching her to go to her bedroom or to the bathroom when she wants to do it.

very normal. I'm a Morah for 2 year olds and I see it all the time. I remind them that we don't put hands in underwear and then distract them.

I have 4 daughters. they all figured it out on their own at about 14-18 months. they all still do it. but the older ones know only in bed under their blankets. my 3 year old does it anywhere at home and she needs to be gently reminded or distracted.

it actually really bothers me that my girls do it but I'm told its normal...

Hmm. I'm not at all trying to be accusatory but maybe you could work on that. Think about why it bothers you and examine that.

It's very age appropriate. It's a soothing mechanism rather then pleasuring themselves.

Op it is not a 2exual thing for a 2 year old. She found her v@gina and she figured out how it feels good to rub herself there. Thats all it is.
Dont make it something its not. Just keep reminding her that we dont do this in front of others. At 2 that might mean nothing to her, but as she gets older she will get it eventually.
Please dont make her feel bad about it. Its completely fine.

because I find it a bit embarrassing when I'm amongst relatives etc and my 3 yr old starts doing this. you wouldn't' be a bit embarrassed??

even in my own house when I have guests on shabbos etc I feel like I'm always on guard. again, there's nothing wrong per say. but its still something embarrassing in public.

My 3 yr old dd does it too, yes it's annoying to have to be on guard that she doesn't so it in public. Then I direct her to her room or distract her with a different activity.

OP although this may be common, I don’t think it’s entirely normal. I’ve seen people say that histamine issues can cause these types of things. I would try an antihistamine and see if it helps.

I’ve been touching self since I was a toddler lol. Totally normal! It’s not s-xual at that age, they don’t have that concept in their heads. Its just something that feels good. Nothing wrong with it. Just calmly tell your child that it can only be done in private.

What reason do you have to think it's abnormal or requires treatment?

I never understand when posters write this.
It's not s-xual for me either- it just feels good.

Why do you think its not normal? I wish there were surveys to find out just how many youngsters m@STurbate. The numbers would probably astound you. Its beyond normal. They are exploring their bodies and what feels good and what doesnt.

It’s sort of like sucking your thumb.
It soothes.not really appropriate to suck your thumb after a certain age in public.
