So confusing. I always thought this was a hunger cue but now he is just constantly doing it. Does anyone else's baby do this? He does it after eating and I'll offer more because of it but he turned down the nipple/bottle.

Mine is doing that because he’s teething already

Rubbing his tongue on his gums

I was told that after about 2 months, biting/licking hands are no longer an accurate hunger cue. I think the licking air is included in that. It's just a development milestone.

Mine is starting to teeth, I can see the white in the bottom gums
Thank you! My parents keep saying that it seems like he is teething but he is only 11 weeks!
interesting!! I think that this is true

Only a hunger cue when newborn! Mine is exploring her tongue right now too lol she points it and will play around!
how old? I think that he is too but he's only 11 weeks tomorrow (I guess technically 12 since he is a week late)
