When you tickle your baby, what happens?

Whenever I tickle Tegan she will stop breathing, go rigid and then will kinda let out a small cry. She really doesn't seem to like being tickled and so I only do it every once in awhile to see if her reaction has changed. What does your LO do?

    My DD laughs when I tickle her neck.. Sometimes while I'm holding her I will run my fingertips up and down her back and she will just squirm around lol.

    He sucks in his breath and makes a surprised face. Occasionally he'll giggle.

    Sometimes he will giggle but most of the time he holds his breath, arches his back, turns red, and grunts.  Then after I stop he will usually smile.

    When I do it, nothing. When daddy does it, laughs uncontrollably.

    She has just started to be ticklish she will let out a big old giggle and smile, but only lasts for so long.

    She laughs and screeches, the screeching is new.  She loves to be tickled though.  That doesn't sound too unusual what Tegan does, Allie went through a stage where she had a total meltdown if you blew a raspberry, and she normally doesn't ever fuss, it was so weird.

    I'm still working on teaching her to be ticklish. We play every day during diaper changes with tickling her belly and zerberts on her belly. I make sure to do big smiles and giggles and she usually copies me. It still takes a lot to get her to really giggle, though.

    Nothing happens to my DD either.  My grandmother told me not to tickle her  because it was mean and she has no defense mechanism.  I don't believe that, but I thought it was an odd thing to say.

    It depends on where

    Back: she will shrug her shoulders, smile and arch her back

    Armpit: smile and giggle

    Lowerback top of booty crack: Hysterical fits of laughter.
