Is It Normal for Newborns to Frequently Suck Their Fingers?

Answer

Newborns frequently suck their fingers after birth, which is a normal behavior, often starting while they are still in the womb.

If accompanied by other symptoms such as skin rashes, vomiting, etc., it is advisable to consult a doctor.
