Smiling already?

I swear my DS smiled at me yesterday morning while he was drinking his bottle. I thought "nah" but after I kept talking to him he did it 5 times. Then he did it again today, like twice...after I was talking to him. Isn't it too young? They are 8 weeks tomorrow.

 

Mine were smiling real smiles at 4-5 weeks corrected age! It's definitely not too young. Trust your gut - those are real smiles, just for you!

 

mine are both smiling, dd started last week and ds over the weekend, although it takes alot of work to get one out of him.

 

That sounds just about right for my two. They both smiled on the same day. How fun. Enjoy them

 

We were late smilers at 2.5 months. Sounds just about right to me. You will know when it is the real deal....sounds like it is! Don't doubt it!

 

Our first smiles came at 6 weeks. We now have , what my dd calls, "watermelon smiles". They are so big you can fit a piece of watermelon in their mouth.lol. The best thing is going in their room in the morning and getting greeted my 2 huge smiles.

 

Mine just started smiling this week, and I swore she laughed.

 

oh - mine will be 6 weeks tomorrow and i've been wondering when it will happen. so excited to see those real grins!

 

I remember with my first son he smiled when he was 16 days old. I remember it so clearly, and exactly how old he was because I could not believe it! With these twinkies I noticed real smiles around 4 weeks. It is the best feeling in the world!

I agree! He knows his mommy and he wants you to know you make him happy! So cute!

 

Oh how fun for you!!! My twins started smiling at 6 weeks. Yes, the real social smile, it's almost like they're cracking themselves up over seeing your face.

I keep trying to get a good picture of their smiles but the photos just don't do any justice!

Enjoy!!!

 

Mine started smiling around 5 weeks, and I just got my first laugh out of Austin last night....it was so cute!!

mine smiled at 4 and 5-6 weeks..
got my first laugh from ds 2 weeks ago and from dd yesterday!! soooo cute!

 

Mine started this week, they have been doing it in their sleep for weeks but I dont' think those count but they are just as adorable. PP is right, it takes alot of work to get one out of them but when they do, it is the cutest thing in the world. I read somewhere to smile at them because they like to watch mommy and will learn to imitate you! Have fun!

 

Definitely could be. Katie already has began... she coos at us, and even has little giggle sounds!

 

Awww, the first smiles are so so sweet! My first DD started smiling social smiles at 3 weeks, but everyone commented on what an alert baby she was from the day she was born...so I think it was a bit unusual. These girls started smiling a couple days before 5 weeks.

Enjoy your little munchkins!
