Baby is 71 days old and still doesn't know how to laugh, what should I do?

Patient's question:

I would like to know if my baby, who is 71 days old, needs treatment because he or she doesn't laugh yet.

Doctor's answer:

Hello, a 71-day-old baby may not be easily amused, as the baby is too young to recognize and respond to adults' attempts to entertain them. Don't hurry.
Babies laugh in their sleep because they dream about happy things. If the baby can track objects and has normal hearing, it indicates that the baby is healthy and there are no issues. As long as the baby's development in all areas is progressing forward, there is generally no major concern. Some babies may develop slightly slower, but this is still within the normal range.
