Lala was more like 3 weeks.

It was for me! But my husband got the first laugh last weekend at 9.5 weeks. He also started cooing a bunch right after he started smiling. He has whole conversations with us now. Its awesome. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-baby-give-herhis-first-social-smile#post-208101 Sun, 01 Jul 2012 18:32:25 +0000 erwoo 208101@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would say 2.5 but closer to 3 months.

She started always smiling the when I put her on her diaper table, so I knew it was a social smile instead of something random. Sometime around week 9 or 10 she started smiling at me in response to my smiles, and when I make silly noises. That totally makes my day! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-baby-give-herhis-first-social-smile#post-194641 Mon, 18 Jun 2012 23:32:42 +0000 lemondrop 194641@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>7 weeks on the dot- at the mirror of his brand new play gym. I was showing my husband the new toy, and right then he broke into a huge smile at himself... we had been placing bets on who he would smile at first. We both lost- vain little boy, but at least we both got to see it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-baby-give-herhis-first-social-smile#post-194636 Mon, 18 Jun 2012 23:06:38 +0000 Honeybee 194636@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>With DD, it was around 2 months; with DS, it was super early, like 2 or 3 weeks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-baby-give-herhis-first-social-smile#post-193734 Mon, 18 Jun 2012 11:17:27 +0000 Mrsbells 193734@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>towards the end of her 3rd week she started smiling like clockwork everytime I took her diaper off </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-baby-give-herhis-first-social-smile#post-193721 Mon, 18 Jun 2012 11:07:40 +0000 mrs. wagon 193721@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>6 weeks! and not to me, to a guy he was seeing for the first time! sigh. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-baby-give-herhis-first-social-smile#post-193717 Mon, 18 Jun 2012 11:02:58 +0000 pelikila 193717@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>7 weeks right before I went back to work. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-baby-give-herhis-first-social-smile#post-193711 Mon, 18 Jun 2012 10:57:48 +0000 loveisstrange 193711@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>4 weeks, on the dot </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-baby-give-herhis-first-social-smile#post-193698 Mon, 18 Jun 2012 10:49:02 +0000 Mrs. Bee 193698@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i have to go back and look it up, but it was definitely after two months. i believe right after my 2 month update, so after 9 weeks. but olive was born 5 weeks early!</p> <p>charlie started social smiling very early. before 4 weeks for sure because he was cooing by then. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-baby-give-herhis-first-social-smile#post-193688 Mon, 18 Jun 2012 10:45:54 +0000 regberadaisy 193688@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't remember the exact day but it was towards the end of the 5th week! ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-baby-give-herhis-first-social-smile#post-193678 Mon, 18 Jun 2012 10:43:20 +0000 winniebee 193678@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Just curious! </p>
