First smile

Hi anyone not had a first smile yet ? Baby had jabs today as 8 weeks and they asked if we have had a smile yet … we haven’t and they said to let them know if we still haven’t by 10 weeks, so worrying a little now :(

Hey mama, I know it’s easier said than done but try not to worry - babies might not smile until they reach 12 weeks! My aunt’s little one didn’t start smiling until this point.

@Anisha ♡ thank you! ❤️

Our LO started smiling a little at 9 weeks and a lot from 10 weeks. It helps by spending sometime close to their face being playful and smiling at them. 😊

I only really had mine in the last week (8w) and my god do I have to work for them. Like Eve says it seems when I’m closer to his face he smiles. I play with his little wash cloths when cleaning his face, or kiss his face a lot and that seems to set him off. Or if I call him beautiful 😂

We've only just got ours tonight. Like above, me and my husband had to work for them to happen. She's 8 weeks today. We have our 8 week check tomorrow, along with the vaccinations. Try not to worry

@Rachel I was really working for it today 🤣 but she’s had her jabs bless her so she’s non stop frowning thinking thanks a lot mum! X

Baby boy started smiling at 6 and a half weeks but to begin with it wasn't very frequent and we really had to work to get one. After his jabs he didn't smile at all for a couple of days but now at 9 weeks he's smiling lots and not just at us but at everyone. I'm sure it will come soon and it will be all the more special, try not to worry, every baby is different x

@Kim thank you! My little boy was smiling and rolling early on, seems my little girl is a bit different xx
