ACCORDING TO THE EXPERTS...

Month 2
  • Begins to develop a social smile

  • Enjoys playing with other people and may cry when play stops

  • Prefers looking at people rather than objects

  • Studies faces

  • Gurgles and coos in response to sounds around her

  • First begins to express anger

WHERE WE'RE AT:
  • smiles in sleep, but not in reaction to outside stimuli
  • pouts when not soothed
  • determined that co-sleeping and nap cuddles are preferred
  • rolls over
  • scooches toward people (smells - - mommy smells? apparently I smell like food)
  • coos in reply to certain tones of voice
  • demonstrates anger (usually frustration at bedtime)
  • studies faces (and then grimaces at them)
  • plays for a limited amount of time... but gets bored easily
