My baby has got habit of sucking his thumb all the time, it is becoming difficult to breastfeed him as he prefers sucking thumb rather than feeding. Also he is sucking in between feeding formula milk as well? Please suggest how can we stop his habit ?

A. I Think you should check the gums of your child I think your child is teething which is why this is happening it’s very common with kids to be irritated And mostly to have a thumb in their mouth because they feel better relax and the irritation is not there they keep doing it
