My 10 week old baby only smiles at me?

[Charlottef94]

My 10 week old baby son smiles at me all the time, every time he sees me, with eye contact and loves chatting and making noises. However, he rarely smiles at anyone else and my husband is a bit upset as he never smiles for him, he is purely focussed on me and when he holds him DS just looks at me for approval / wants to come back to me.

is this normal for a 10 week old? Everywhere I look they apparently can’t tell between people at this age and / or believe they’re part of mum and don’t smile at her.

Just wanted to check, as obviously it’s lovely for me for him to be so focussed on me but unsure if it could be developmentally abnormal at his age?

thanks!

My 4 month old smiles and giggles at me all the time! She smiles for her dad but has not to this day, giggled for him.

I put it down to her spending more time with me than my partner or it could just be a different bond between mum & baby. It takes her a while to smile for other family members too.

I wouldn't worry, things may change as they get a bit older 😊
