A. usually this habit is seen during the teething phase and since it is a self limiting habit it will decrease by its own but if it is not decreasing you can divert the child and remove the finger from the thumb again and again

A. Hello mom No this is not a good habit at all and if you will not stop your baby now then this habit will continue and increase. Whenever baby is taking thumb in mouth you have to keep it out. And you can also use mittens to cover your baby’s hand so we can’t take thumb in mouth. Happy parenting stay home stay safe
