hi i wanted to know if it was normal for babies to have their fists balled up all day? my baby is one month and he unballs them sometimes

Yes completely normal it’s called the palmar grasp reflex it should lessen as time goes on and he should unball them when he’s full from feeding I wouldn’t think too much about this.
Totally normal. Make sure you clean their hands really good every day or they get gross

Yes! Totally normal. I remember reading an article about it when my son was a newborn that said babies normally ball up their fists a lot and will sometimes unball them when they are full. Which makes sense to me since they’re hungry all the time
