    My two are eight months now and still sometimes make suckling noises in their sleep, with their tongues hanging out. I love it, it's so cute, but I really thought they'd have grown out of it by now. I'll miss it if they do!

    Obi sucks on his Lambies (and his microfibre car sponge) every day. But not in his sleep.

    I'd wager that your guys will keep doing it :)

    Mira still sometimes makes very loud sucking noises in her sleep and her tongue pokes out. Her tongue often stays out for a while after the noises stop.
    I still find it overwhelmingly cute :-[

    Charlie sounds like a recording of a big pod of whales and dolphins in his sleep - grunting, moans, whistles, yelps, barks, snores...there might well be some sucking sounds in there...

    Haha, Willow is a bit like that. She yips and groans a lot in her sleep. But the sucking is very prolonged and very distinctive in both of them, always with a tongue hanging out :)

    Barney still does this, but not as often as when he was small. Jack rarely does it. They both snore SO LOUD though, esp Barney, you can feel the vibration through your feet when they're laid on the floor near you!

    Scout still sucks my fingers after he's finished eating. He's always done it and he's four now.
