This might be a weird question, but do newborns usually flinch when you put your hand in their face?
Baby don’t flinch LOL 😂 your mom is funny. My baby looked crosseyed to me for a couple months. All she did was get wide eyed sometimes lol
Mine doesn’t flinch. If I come in close he will get wide-eyed, but he won’t flinch. They are too young to know to protect their eyeballs just yet.
@jennatess, exactly. Lol. So I’m just gonna get his eyes tested to I can say I told you so lol
@llcoolkay, be like, “and they where like..he’s fine. What made you think otherwise?”. 😂😂
Lol. My daughter is 3.5 starting school in September. My mom says to me the other day. " Are you going to talk to her teachers a out how she has a problem sitting still" No mom she's 3 lol she's doing just fine. She's extra smart and into everything so that's why. Also I'm sure the teachers have delt with busy kids.... Ughh Moms lol
Lmao. My moms the same way. My daughter is starting school In August and she’s not the best listener yet and my moms worried that she won’t listen to the teacher. Well she’s 2.5 lol
Lol :) our parents seem to remember us growing up so much more quickly. The eye test won't hurt if your worried, but their eyes arnt fully. Developed till 2 so I wouldn't worry. :)
My mom is so crazy lmao. She always thinks the worst. But I’m going to do the test so she will leave me alone about it haha
Then your right on track :)
Does he follow your eyes yet?
@mississippi.queen, @ma.name.chef, that’s what I keep telling my mom. She brought it up to his pediatrician today so he said if it’ll ease our minds we can check his vision. @anicole3285,
My daughter flinched when she was a newborn. Her startle reflex was incredibly sensitive for the first month and a half of her life. Like the direction of the air flow in the room could have changed and you would have thought someone was jerking her around. Never cried. but that arm would flail!
He does the startled jump and arm flailing when something startles him lol. But he doesn’t really react all the time when you put something in his face
@llcoolkay it's common for them not too. They can't see all that well yet lol
Yeah maybe blink is a better word. He will blink sometimes when we do it
@llcoolkay I think it's normal for them to not really react. I think she just had started following objects. Her startle reflex is there though lol although I think my son had a more sensitive reflex 🤔
My mom is a crazy worry wart and asked me if my son might be blind because he never flinches when stuff is in his face.
@llcoolkay well babies don't flinch unless they been hit. They might blink or close their eyes but not flinch
