DD tries to suck my lips, mouth and sometimes my chin

Hi all my lo is 4.5 months and for the last 3-4 weeks has been doing this really strange behaviour. If her head is at the same level as mine she opens her mouth and tries to kind of cover mine! When I let her do what she wanted to see what would happen she started sucking my lips and chin. I am guessing this is teething related, as I know that she does appear to be teething, anyone else had this from their lo's?

My ex-charge's sister (6months) leant right over to put my foot in her mouth! She also gave my chin a good sucking as well.

Perfectly normal, babies explore with their mouths

when my brother was 1, if you asked for a kiss you'd get your chin nearly sucked off your face
