A. Baby is currently at an exploring stage. They sucking their hand is a good sign of having achieved a milestone. This will last for a month or so. Please dont try to remove their fist from the month.

A. Hello my dear parent! Ideally babies do grow out of that habit with time, but yes, in the long run, it may affect your babies growing teeth and gums. Try engaging your baby with Babyhug toys and teethers
