A have a friend who has trouble holding (but not making) eye contact, and she's 30. I think everybody is different but being able to tell on a one-month-old a trait that may carry into adulthood is not very likely.

@amorrione I'm glad it's normal. I was worried bc I knew a girl in my neighborhood who would alwaysss look up into the sky while talking to someone. never made eye contact.

@babynessa I was doing that with her earlier to see if she would face my way and she was. once I began nursing her she looked me straight in the eye with big smile (:

My daughter did that for a while I felt like she was looking at my hairline rather than my face but she's getting better now, more consistent with looking into my eyes. She's almost 2 months old

My daughter did that since she was about a months. My husband would grab her rattle and make a noise on one side of her and she'd turn that direction. Or he would talk to her and hide and see if she could figure out the direction of his voice. It's actually something thats very good for their development same as peek a boo. Now when we talk to her she stops what she's doing and looks directly at us.

she looked at my while I breast feeding her as I wrote the post lol I was nervous for a second @marialovey7

- My son did that for like the first 3-4 months . but over time he got better and now he will look at me or directly at someone who's talking . his 8 months now.
