Re: Tell me when your preemie smiled

  • She JUST started smiling last week! 24 weeker born 11/1 - adjusted age was 9 weeks. And unfortunately the only way I can get her to do it is to talk ridiculously high to her :)

  • Aiden smiled the first time a week ago at 4 weeks adjusted. He still only does it once or twice a day though. I hope he smiles for you soon! He is so cute I can only imagine how cute a little grin will be on that face.

  • We just got smiles here about a week ago also. (adjusted age 10 weeks)
  • OMG it took FOREVER. I never thought she'd smile. She finally did it just before Christmas, at 15 weeks actual, 9 weeks adjusted. I was getting so bummed right about where you are and was SO happy when in it finally happened. Your LO will smile, too, and you totally won't remember these weeks you've been waiting for his smile, I promise!
  • 3 months adjusted - hang in there!!

    He's so cute!

  • It felt like it took forever.  One of by friends who had a premie as well said she felt the same way and reassured me he would smile. He did at about months adjusted.
