My 2 month old likes to suck on her fingers, not for hunger, she just discovered them and likes to suck them when she's content.
She gets so enthusiastic about it that she sticks them down her throat and makes herself gag.
Anything to do about it?

She has one, but she pushes it out because she prefers her fingers.

I wouldnt worry she will get used to it, but I would encourage the pacifier because its very hard to break the habbit of finger sucking as apposed to taking away a pacifier when she gets older
