Emotional & Social Development in Babies: Birth to 3 Months
By 2 months old, your baby will spend much of each day watching and listening to the people around them. They learn that they will entertain and soothe them, feed them and make them comfortable. During their first month, they'll experiment with primitive grins and grimaces. Then, during the second month, these movements will turn to genuine signals of pleasure and friendliness.
Your baby's first true smile
If you've experienced your baby's first true smile, then you know it's a major turning point for both of you. All the sleepless nights and erratic days of these first weeks suddenly seem worthwhile, and you'll do everything in your power to keep those smiles coming.
For their part, your baby will suddenly discover that just by moving their lips they can have "conversations" with you. Smiling will also give them another way besides crying to express their needs and exert control over what happens to them.
The more engaged they are with you and your smiles and the rest of the world around them, the more her brain development advances, and the more they'll be distracted from internal sensations (hunger, gas, fatigue) that once strongly influenced their behavior.
Your baby's increasing socialization is further proof they enjoy these new experiences. Expanding their world with these experiences is fun for both of you and important to their overall development.
