Is your LO laughing?

planeNsimple · August 2012

My girl is 4 months old and doesn't laugh at all. Normally I would tell my self to not worry, all babies develop at their own pace. However, my son NEVER laughed! He didn't laugh until he was over a year. I desperately want her to laugh! I LOVE the sound of babies laughing. I'm worried she is going to fallow in the same path

Mine giggled once almost two weeks ago and hasn't done it since! I wasn't even being funny. I was wiping his hands with a washcloth and he smiled so big and let out a giggle. We've been making complete fools of ourselves trying to get him to do it again and...nothing.

Nope. No laughs here. Big grins and wiggles are about all we get out of her.

I do have a laugher. But my niece who is about 6 months is not. She smiles but no laughing.

L started laughing a couple weeks ago but we really have to work for it. She just doesn't laugh, we have to tickle and be really crazy. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.

She is laughing but only at things her brother does. No laughs for me.

DD laughs all the time but DS very rarely laughed until he was close to a year. I think it has a lot to do with personality.

I get the occasional giggle but no big laughs here yet either.

my DD would laugh softly in her sleep from the time she was a few days old. she finally began sort of chuckling when she was maybe a month old. she really laughed for the first time when she was about 3 months old. she doesn't do it very often, but it's becoming more common. mostly the grins and squeals!

This is my DD exactly.

DD has been giggling since she was 3 months old, smiling since 7 weeks.

ETA: That doesn't appear to be the norm though.

We have gotten a chuckle or two out of our babies but nothing really consistent. I also make an insane fool out of myself trying Tibet them to laugh but for now I settle for big smiles.

My 4 month old has laughed once a few weeks ago and not again since, can't wait until she can laugh all the time!

This for me too. He makes us work very hard for it!

Yup. He's 5.5 months old. Sometimes, he is so giggly and will laugh at pretty much anything. I think he was around 3 months when he starting giggling and has been smiling since 6-7 weeks or so. It started out only getting a giggle out of him once in a blue moon. Now, he laughs everyday at some point.

One night a couple of weeks ago we put our LO in front of the mirror and out of nowhere she laughed. Hard. It was unexpected and the cutest thing ever! AND I got it all on video!

She'll laugh out loud every now and then. Mostly with her dad or some other boys in the family.

My boy will give us the occasional chuckle but he's not a big laugher. Just yesterday we got a little bit of a bigger laugh and oh, is it just the sweetest sound! I wish he would laugh more, but like PPs said we really have to work for it.

Just started at 5 months old. Although I still have yet to get it on video.
