What Causes Thumb Sucking in kids?

Thumb or finger sucking is usually a symptom of something else. It can act as a pain relief and can actually help a child's facial development.

We used a paci for the first 3-4 months of our baby's life (not in the beginning weeks but we had to introduce it to help during traveling pains and the like). Our child now only sucks when he's already happy, mouthing and playing basically or when he's happy getting dressed or after a feed. He does not thumb suck when upset or to drift off to sleep... We would like to encourage or show the baby that it's ok to thumb suck so he can link sleep cycles better! How do we do this without a cry it out sleep training method? Pick up and put down hasn't worked yet (haven't started fully, have a big move ahead next week). Our son is 5 months old and I'm also certain that they won't go over the 4 year mark
