A. Its A very normal habit of a child it is not necessarily because of hunger so Don’t feed the child cry or the make a fist of their hand you know it’s not necessarily going to take the thumb war finger into the mouth after the age of 3 to 4 months you can think that it could be a fact that maybe your child is having his teeth but not as of now
