Patient's question:
Hello doctor, my baby is 71 days old and still cannot smile, only laughs in dreams sometimes, and occasionally laughs out loud. Object tracking is okay, but not very sensitive. The hospital tested the hearing and found no issues. Is this normal?Doctor's answer:
Hello. A 71-day-old baby cannot be made to laugh. The baby is too young. They don't know how to respond to adults' teasing yet. Don't hurry. The baby laughs in their dreams because they dream about happy things while sleeping. They can track objects, and their hearing is normal. This shows that the baby is a healthy one. There is no problem. As long as the baby's development in all areas is progressing forward, it is usually not a big issue. Some babies may develop slightly behind, but it is all normal.
