Q:Should parents interfere with baby’s foot eating?
A: It is quite normal for babies to eat their feet, and such phenomenon will improve after one year old.
The babies before one year old usually lie in bed and play at home, their feet are basically very clean. Therefore, it is of no need for parents to worry about baby’s foot eating and take special treatment.
But more importantly, it must be noted that parents should promptly clean the baby’s feet whenever baby come back home with dirty feet from outdoors, so that the baby can feel free to eat feet.
While after one year old, babies begin to run around and their feet get dirty all day long, they are not interested in eating feet but curious about the outside world.
