Babies smiling yet?

My lg will be 7 weeks on Friday. She isn’t smiling yet. My HV and doctors have been asking me if she is smiling yet. When did you babies start smiling. I’m now worried something is wrong that she hasn’t started to smile.

My LG was 5 weeks old, but we’ve hypothesised that she’s a bit ahead because she was born 10 days overdue. Not sure there’s any confirmed science to that, but she has seemed slightly early with things. It’s usually in the first 8 weeks so still plenty of time

My little girl is 9 weeks today, she only started smiling about 10 days ago. So she should be smiling soon. It’s the best feeling in the world when they react with a smile ❤️

Thanks for this girls 💞 she was born at 38 weeks so not sure if that should be taken into consideration. You just always worry don’t you xx

My eldest didn't smile until about 9 or 10 weeks. We were so worried at the time but now he's a very happy 18 month old who never stops smiling and laughing! Please don't be worried, babies do everything in their own time!

Around 6 weeks

My little boy is 12 weeks but was born 5/6 weeks early so is technically 7 weeks now. It’s only in the last week we have “on demand” smiles by doing some extremely animated talking. It’s not super common though. I have to sound like Ms Rachel.

My little girl is almost 10 weeks and only started smiling about 1-2 weeks ago. I was worried as HV kept asking and she wasnt showing any signs then all of a sudden she started. X
