A. Hello dear parent! It is a very normal finding in small babies to lick their fingers. It is a way of exploring things and body parts. Maintain a good personal and oral hygiene for your child. Keep cleaning your baby’s mouth and hands frequently. Check if your baby is teething as well. Continue breastfeeding your baby well on demand.
