Babies hands in mouth

Baby is teething and hands are constantly on her mouth. Are we just letting babies explore their hands in their mouth? I feel like I’m constantly taking her hand out of her mouth every second of the day 🙈

Our little man is the same. I just let him have his hands in his mouth or a muslin or a comforter. Whatever makes him happy.

Yeah I’m the same, I leave her hand in her mouth. But I’ve bought a teething toy, so that helps give her hand have a break sometimes 😄

there is no way I get that hand out of my child’s mouth, even with a teething toy, I just leave her to it🤣

Toys are just not cutting it, her hands must be more tastier than the toys 😬😂

Hand in mouth for teething and comfort at the age is appropriate for their development. I am sure it helps with the coordination for weaning 🙂 xx

If it’s not her hand, it’s a desperate attempt to get mine in her mouth instead 😂 from everything I’ve read, it’s age-appropriate for them to do this so I’m just letting her carry on!

I read somewhere how it's also a comfort/self soothing thing.. so I'm all for that!
