Child Health Issues

Hello Dr. My baby who is currently 5 months old keeps putting his palm or fingers in his mouth. He also tries to suck his pillow cover, blanket etc. He pees around 8 to 10 times a day and is on breast feeding the entire day except for a bottle of formula given at night. I wish to know is putting hands inside mouth a sign of hunger or is it done for some other reason.
