Action during deep sleep
Today afternoon, my grandson age 3 years, was sleeping near me. During sleep, he turned towards me. He touched his fingers to my chest and inserted in his mouth and sucked for a while. He repeated this process three times. He was sleeping deeply. Is he having any problem ? Is he feeling insecure ?
