I have a 4 week old, and she seems to like playing with my nipple with her tongue, before she feeds and during and after. Is this normal?

Totally normal, it's a healthy stim for nursing babies

Completely normal lol actually helps stimulate and bring down the milk flow

Yup they all do lol

Totally normal! When they're bigger they'll also fiddle with their hands while feeding 😆

Yes it's normal and a healthy sign! I asked my midwife and she said it's called a flutter sucking. When the baby uses their tongue to stimulate and draw the fatty portion of the milk. Clever babies! 😊
