Our LO just turned 17 months on the 5th (as I know most everyone in this group will hit this milestone this month also- YAY!). The last couple of weeks my husband and I have been noticing that when we change our LO she is overly curious about touching her privates-semi normal- (she of course has done this occasionally for many months now) but she has begun to stick her fingers directly in her mouth afterwards. We are becoming very worried and uneasy about this behavior. Has anyone else experienced anything like this? Any suggestions or comments would help a lot. Thanks

You need to take your daughter to her DOCTOR TODAY and let them know about this concern. This may be just a reaction to something or something serious.

Not sure why the other response is sort of over the top about taking her to the doc. BUT I would just begin to explain to her that her fingers are dirty after she touches her bottom and it could make her sick so not to put them in her mouth. No biggee. She probably honestly likes the tast or loves the reaction she gets from you.

I think that this is a normal response. My daughter did that for a while and it has since stopped. She is a little over two years now. Its a part of the childs body that they don't get to explore much because it is covered all the time. I would just move her hand away and say no. Eventually she will leave it alone.
