A. Hello mom Yes this is totally normal and you should not worry about it at all. Babies take their finger and hand in mouth and this is normal. You can provide some hand toys or you can cover your baby’s hands with mittens after that it will be difficult for baby to take fingers in mouth. Happy parenting Stay home stay safe
