It also happened once before, every time it spits for two days, it will have a high fever. I want to ask what part is actually problematic?Doctor's answer:
This is a normal phenomenon. At around 2 months, babies begin the process of exploring their world. Various functions of their nervous system start to develop. The order of neural development in babies is from the center outward. Therefore, the nerves around the mouth develop earlier than those in the hands. For babies aged 2 to 5 months, the mouth is a tool for exploring the world, as they use it to explore and experience their surroundings. So, they might stick their tongues out to play or lick anything they come into contact with. This is part of their practice!
