A. Namaste Mom, it can be but always it does not, it could also indicate that the baby tends to just love to latch and they like to do this hence best to use mittens

A. Most common reasons 🤱👶 1. Comfort / self-soothing Babies often suck or lick their hands to relax. It helps them feel calm and secure—even if they’re already full. 2. Hunger cues (sometimes) If it happens soon after feeding, it doesn’t always mean hunger. But if you also notice:Turning head side to side (rooting) Crying shortly after Trying to latch again 3. Developmental milestone (very common at 2 months)

A. Hello! It might not necessarily mean that your baby is hungry. It can be that your babies is just playful, try to explore the body parts, fingers, et cetera. As long as the baby is healthy and active there shouldn’t be any problem.
