What's going on? A two-month-old baby seems not to hear when called.

Patient's question:

The two-month-old baby seems not to hear when called, but sometimes he jumps when answering loudly while sleeping. Occasionally, when chatting with him, he chats back and laughs. His hearing passed upon discharge.

Doctor's answer:

According to the child's growth and development, two months is still a bit young. Generally, it's around three months that they start to interact with people. The sequence is: one cry, two smiles, three recognizing their mother. At three months, they have already started to interact with people. Regarding the situation you mentioned, the child's hearing should be fine. Let's wait and see as they grow older. By the time they reach four or five months, it's important to provide complementary foods in a timely manner, with proper nutritional balance. As long as their height, weight, and overall growth and development are normal, there shouldn't be any major issues. Wishing you a happy life.
