Hi all,
We have a 6 month old daughter. We are going for our 6 month appointment next week for a check up. Our doc always sends us a milestone screener before we go to fill out. She is hitting all milestones but one of them says
“brings hands or toys to mouth”.

She has her hands in her mouth a lot but never really brings a toy there. She doesn’t have teeth yet so this might be why??

I wasn’t really concerned about it until I went down a google rabbit hole. But has anyone had experience with a 6 month or older baby not chewing on toys or bringing them to her mouth? My anxiety Doesn’t help either.

thank you.

Don't think DS ever did this. He's now 4. Don't overthink it.

My dd never did either. I used to feel relieved she wouldn't be one to choke on small toys. She is also four now.
