My baby is 23 months old baby girl often picks up dirt from ground and eats and also has habit off picking up hair or even pulling her own hair and keeping it in mouth. Have tried stopping her from doing it but she keeps repeating this behaviour. Is it normal?

A. pica ok and a behaviour problem so. if there is no relief it is better you see your doctor for proper examination particularly physical examination if there is need for doing investigations to find out the problem and treatment ok
