Mittens or no mittens?

Is it better for a 11-week old baby to suck their fingers or the mittens? She don’t like the pacifier. I put mittens on so that the baby won’t scratch her face. I am worried that the baby will poke or scratch her eyes. Will that happen?

Not to worry. Just make sure u trim her fingers weekly to avoid nails growing long to scratch her face. Without mittens is for LO to exercise her fingers and helps in muscle development.
