1 Answer

POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 5 m old boy8 months ago

A. Yes, it is normal for a 3-month-old baby to be playful during feedings. At this stage, babies are becoming more aware of their surroundings and are more easily distracted by things around them. They may want to look around, smile, or even play with their hands while breastfeeding or bottle-feeding. However, make sure that the baby is still feeding enough and gaining weight appropriately. If you notice that the playfulness is interfering with their ability to feed properly, you can try feeding in a quieter environment or ensure that the baby is calm and comfortable before starting the feed. If you have concerns about your baby's feeding patterns, it’s always good to consult with your pediatrician to ensure that the baby is getting enough nutrition.
