Ankita MehtaMom of a 9 yr 11 m old girl4 years agoA. hi
yes it is
usually babies at this stage of age try to explore their body parts through touching smelling and tasting so don't worry it is normal.
just gently remove your child thumb from mouth whenever your child does this.
maintain good hygiene
