LO craving touch/tickles

When my LO and I are cuddling (he also does this with my mom as well) he requests/demands "tickles".  He loves the sensation of having our fingers traipse gently over his legs, tummy, hair, etc.  He will request "Tickle tummy", "Tickle leg", "Tickle nose" etc... and is very insistent on it.  It seems to soothe him, he will just relax and enjoy the sensation.  

I am curious about it though since it seems.... different?  Does anyone else have a LO with "Tickle Cravings"?

  • I think it's pretty normal / common. DS loves being tickled as well. I had a friend growing up who (in jr. High) loved having someone tickle her forearm! I often wonder if she still requests that people tickle her!! Lol

  • Yup DD does this, especially when she is being silly. She'll plop down next to me or DH and just say Tickle Me, Tickle Me over and over.

  • DS loves to be tickled also.  If I stop rubbing his head, shoulders, arms he will say "tickle me again, momma".

  • Thanks guys :)  I rarely worry... but I couldn't help but wonder if this one was different at all.  I appreciate the reassurance!
