Is it OK if my grandson has 6 fingers on his hand?

Answer #1

yes alot of babies are but an operation is normally done to remove the extra finger its nothing awful can be fixed easily!

Answer #2

Dear prue011, We hear babies born with teeth a fair amount of time…sometimes these teeth will fall out on their own. If they appear to give the baby a problem as far as maybe being painful take the baby to a doctor and he may easily remove them. The extra finger shouldn’t prove to be a problem either…when the child gets older they can remove the extra finger if that is what is requested. This would probably be recommended for self-esteem reasons. Don’t fret about these things both can be nicely taken care of in the future. Sue…good luck
