 ShraddhaMom of a 7 yr 10 m old girl7 years ago
ShraddhaMom of a 7 yr 10 m old girl7 years agoA. Not to worry my baby does the same. My doctor told me that you cant corelate the sucking action to hunger as the baby is used to doing it. Apart from that they find comfort in doing so and eventually sleep better. If you baby is hungry always remember he or she would never sleep hungry stomach and will always be extremely cranky.
