My Baby Scratches Her Head
My 7 month old scratches her head and gently hits her head with an open hand while she's eating and/or playing. I've heard of self-stimulation but I don't know if this falls into that category. I try to distract her by moving her hand away or making a silly noise to grab her attention. Did I neglect to fulfill a need? Is there a way to break this habit; she always has scratches on her head :(
