Patient's question:
My baby is now 4 and a half months old. The past few days, I don't know why, he has been playing with his tongue out and making babbling sounds. My colleague told me he's happy, but I'm still quite puzzled. Why did he start sticking his tongue out only these past few days?What kind of help I need: Is it true that a baby sticking out their tongue means they're happy? What are the reasons behind a baby sticking their tongue out?
Doctor's answer:
It is normal for your baby to experience this again. The child's condition is normal. It is recommended to wait and see if the baby is teething. Pay attention to hygiene and increase feeding. The child should digest vitamin D and take pediatric vitamin A and D drops. Additionally, provide complementary foods promptly, such as rice powder and egg yolk. The above advice is for the question "Is it a sign of happiness when a baby sticks out their tongue?" and is hoped to be helpful to you. Wishing you good health!
