When did you LO start smiling at you?

Babies are 5 weeks old today and while we've seen them smile, it's definitely a random event. Looking forward to when my babies smile at/because of ME! So I'm curious - when did your baby start doing that?

    Six and a half weeks was her first real smile at me. It didn't happen often but around 8 weeks she started smiling a lot more. Now she smiles all the time!! It's great!

    It was hard to know because I think it was happening for a few days before I realized it.... I think at 6 weeks though. Won't be long!

    Should be any time now!  DS smiled for real around 7 weeks.  DD#1 started smiling at 4.5 weeks and DD#2 was around 5.5 weeks.  It definitely makes those middle of the night wake-ups much more rewarding when you get a smile in return!

    A's first smile at me was when she was a little over 4 months actual (about 6 weeks adjusted).  It was so great because it was the day before I had to return back to work.  Smile

    My LO didn't really start smiling until almost 3 months....but she had pooping problems and the pedi told us she was probably just uncomfortable.
