A. Hello, your baby boy is 5 months old and he is putting his hands in his mouth frequently so either he is teething or he doesn’t get enough breast milk feeding

A. Babies have natural rooting and sucking reflexes, which can cause them to put their thumbs or fingers into their mouths — sometimes even before birth. Because thumb sucking makes babies feel secure, some babies might eventually develop a habit of thumb sucking when they're in need of soothing or going to sleep.
