Clenched fist 1 month + baby

Hello mummies, Just wondering, why does my baby clenched her fist all the time? Even after I feed her and she fall asleep while nursing her. Does that mean that she’s not full enough? Thanks in advance mummies.

Clenched fists for a 1 month old baby is completely normal:) when baby’s so young, look for other feeding/hunger cues. The fists will unclench within the next 2 months, as baby starts exploring her hands.

When my baby does this (aft feeding) i massage her palm to relax. Or let her hold my finger. Cus i see her clench i also stress. 😅 Eventually she relax.. takes time i guess?

Babies hands mostly clenched in a fist for the first few mths, it's a normal reflex that will go away. They will unclench their fists by 3-4 mths.

Possible. Since only 1 month they cannot drink so much milk and the tummy and oesophagus all still developing

It’s normal for newborns to clench their fists.
