Responding to Name?

Are any of your lo's responding to their name?  Our little buddy is 5 mo/4 days.  It doesn't seem like he is really responding. He has turned his head a few times this week, but it seems like its just because we made a noise...any cause for concern?

Re: Responding to Name?

  • Our LO has been doing it for about a month or so, however when I read milestones the other day, it was a "sixth month" milestone... I wouldn't be concerned!

    This.  R has been doing it for about 2 months and I was shocked when I saw it was a 6 month milestone.  I agree, I wouldn't worry, I know easier said than done!

    I can't tell if L is responding to his name, or just responding to the sound of my voice. He looks at me practically every time I talk to him.

    This!

     

    Edit:  Sorry bout the double post I'm not sure how that happened!

  • He does sometimes, so I'm not sure if it's his name he's responding to or just my voice. Plus, I call him so many different nicknames it must be confusing to him :)

  • She definitely responds to noises, and when I talk to her, but it doesn't seem like she knows her name yet. Like PP, we use a lot of different nicknames. Perhaps, I should call her Eleanor more frequently.

  • I totally agree on nicknames. I think he responds more readily to the silky nickname I call him more than his real name. I'm not worried about it though.

    Lol about the nicknames!  I just realized that I do the same thing...I think I make up new ones everyday. :)

    Not yet.  DS seems to be a bit behind the curve on milestones so I'm not surprised lol.  He still hasn't mastered rolling...we're taking baby steps :)

    Hahaha same here!  Even when he's on his belly, I have to position him in just the right way for him to topple over.  If he tries to get into position on his own, his left arm gets stuck.
