A. hibteething, exploring, hunger, self soothing , sleep , tiredness are common reasons. babies at this age put everything in mouth. get  a teether of good company, BPA free for baby. also get some plastic toys with smooth edges , check for good quality . also you can give some clean washed ccolorful cloths to baby to play with. they love different textures.

A. Hello, your baby girl is 2 years old and she use to suck her finger even in her sleep so apply femite lotion at her finger while sleeping and see if she has some psychological issues

A. Hello ma’am See it is just a temporary phase it is going to pass but what you are doing is right you have to continuously stop your child from doing all these things because these things are not good plus having a thumbnail into the mouth is another thing which is not good so just stop your child from doing all these things as there is another there is no other solution to it
