meri beti thumb sucking krna nhi chod rhi h

Accepted Answer

Hello there ma’am please do not worry about it too much. But it is really very difficult to say anything without proper examination of the baby. It is advisable to get the baby evaluated by a doctor and follow doctors advise properly. You can also book online doctor’s appointment on FirstCry where the doctor can help you and guide you properly 
Thanks and take care

Answer

babies have natural rooting and sucking reflexes, which can cause them to put their thumbs or fingers into their mouths . 
because thumb sucking makes babies feel secure, some babies might eventually develop a habit of thumb sucking when they're in need of soothing or going to sleep.
sometimes due to stress also this can occur.
it is many times increased during the teething process also.
