Getting to know your infants emotions can sometimes be daunting. Although it is very easy to tell if they are upset and desire something, it can be much more difficult to tell when they are blissful. Quite a few new parents are worried because they are convinced their infant is continuously discontented, they just don't understand what the signs of a contented baby are. Below are a few signals that indicate your newborn is happy as well as a few happiness milestones.

You anxiously waited nine months for this baby to arrive and all you want to do is smile and coo at him. That's a excellent thing, due to the fact when you do just that it helps to boost your newborn's brain as well as calm him. Don’t be concerned when you do not get a response from baby from all your cooing and smiling. That first month the baby is not able to show positive facial expressions. Soon he should be able to smile and all your effort will be rewarded.

There's nothing more satisfying then when a baby snuggles close to you. Did you know is a sign that baby is happy, it is. That snuggle also means that you're projecting good energy for the baby. Little ones are very capable of sensing your mood. Perhaps you have seen a new mom who is not too confident about her parenting skills, and how fussy her baby is, the reason being that the newborn is picking up on her discomfort. So a key point is making sure your baby is happy is for you to calm down and let go of some of the stress.

Between the one month and three month mark you'll get your reward of a smiling baby. I dare you find something as lovely as a smiling baby. A smiling baby is infectious, because you cannot help smiling right back. Within this time frame your baby will start to smile if you do something that amuses them. Now isn't the time to act like and adult, this is the time to find your silly bone and make that precious baby smile.

Babies really start laughing anywhere between three and six months. Every baby reacts to something different. One particular baby might find a funny voice hysterical. Others might find tummy kisses the funniest thing in the world. Have some fun bonding with your baby in finding out what makes him laugh.

Babies begin finding their voices around the four to seven month time frame. You will not hear words, but lots of noises and chatter. They are really attempting to communicate with you, so much so that you may notice that their babbling from time to time gets higher pitched. This is their way of letting you know they like something, or something is exciting them. They learn to talk by listening to you, so keep chatting away to baby, and wait for him to respond; someday soon actual words will take over the chattering.

A major change happens around the a dozen month mark and that's because babies will now want to make you laugh. They start developing their sense of humor at this time. Once they do something which makes you laugh, they'll do it again to get the same reaction. Be careful at what you laugh at, due to the fact he will want to try it again. You will want to laugh and only encourage good behavior. The baby attempting to take the dog for a pony ride may indeed be funny, but is this something you want to encourage.
