Its common as there muscle coordination is not in control n their a way of communication is these acts

Hi 
Yes they do get easily distracted and it's common to move their arms around as they try to communicate with the surroundings like that. Also they will not have complete control of muscles. Keep the baby closer as much as possible. Try not to bring any distractions near your baby, feed in a cozy room with no bright &#128262; light where there is no much noise.

When my son is nursing, his free arm on top will just pump up and down and he will hit me or himself in the head, 

Just wondering how common that is? I try to hold his hand to prevent him from doing that, as he will randomly hit his own head with his fist.

Also, he loses focus while nursing and pops on and off frequently. Why though??
