When does my baby start grasping?

Babies may reach for their parent's face for a few reasons. One of the main reasons is to establish a close and bonding connection with the caregiver. The baby's reaching and touching of the face can be a way of seeking comfort and security. It also provides an opportunity for the baby to learn about facial features, including eyes, nose, mouth and ears, through their sense of touch. Additionally, some babies may reach for their parent's face when they are hungry and want to initiate a feeding. Overall, the baby's reaching for their parent's face is a normal and natural part of their development and helps to establish a strong bond between the parent and baby.
