Hands in mouth and gagging
Over the last 2/3 weeks my little one has discovered how to put her hands and fingers in her mouth, she loves a good chew but recently has been doing it so much so that she’s making herself gag every time! Does anyone else’s little one do this and do you try and stop it?

Yuppp mine is the same, don’t think there’s a lot we can do really 🙈
Yeh mine constant! She gags sometimes too, just let it happen 😇
No need to try and stop it, it's good for them to learn where their gag reflex limit is in the lead up to weaning!
We introduced a dummy to help with hand chewing, been told that dummies are easier to wean off from then hands x
I spoke to the HV about this and she said it’s baby just exploring and nothing to worry about. Baby doesn’t know it will make them gag so they have to learn it x
