My son was born November 20th at 37 weeks. He is now 10 weeks old (2months 2weeks) and is a healthy baby. I am concerned that he doesnt seem to be meeting milestones. He doesnt seem to be very social. He would rather look at everything around the room than look at our faces. He will make eye contact but not for extended periods of time. He isnt cooing or tracking objects that move or turning towards sounds and voices. Ive been told that preemies (even late term preemies) are measured on an adjusted age scale but just the same i am worried.
I have increased the amount of social interaction he gets. We've started reading to him and talking to him nonstop. Any advice or personal experiences?

Every kid is different.. all mine were early my first was two months early she was in nicu for a month when she came home she was cross eyed because her muscles weren’t developed but they went straight eventually she wore preemie clothes for 4-5 months I had her at 15 so I didn’t track any of that I just felt like they will do it when there ready my second two were also 35 weeks they didn’t really have any issues that I remember so what your doin is fine have you mentioned it to the doctor? What did he say

I havent talked to his doctor yet. I really just started to notice that he wasnt very social. My girls were both vocal and from birth they would just stare at my face but he doesnt. He would rather look at the ceiling fan or a light . I hope I am just over worrying.
@poiznivy, it’s probably fine maybe give him some tummy time and if he has a play mat with toys hanging over it or some light up toys he might fixate on that just a thought
