I took my 8 week old to their check up this week and doctor flagged that she isn’t smiling yet or following with her eyes. He has asked us to come back in 4 weeks and has said he will refer us to a paediatrician if she still isn’t doing it by then. I’ve now got myself into a total state over what this could mean. I’ve had the odd smile here and there but definitely not consistent and you have to really work for them. Yesterday I managed to get her to follow an object with her eyes but today she doesn’t seem interested.
I have 3 under 3 and feel like this is my fault for not doing enough with her- I try to give her as much attention as I can but it’s pretty crazy!
Has anyone else had a late smiler/ eye following baby and all has gone on to be ok?
thank you x
