Is it normal for a baby to suck on his thumb?
A: yes
RIGHT
Explanation: It is normal for a baby to suck on its thumb. Most children stop doing this on their own by the age of two. If the child continues to suck his thumb after he is 2 years old, try to wean him by the age of 4 years. Thumb sucking over the age of 4 years can result in crooked, overly crowded teeth and/or malocclusion.
