How old are babies when they start to smile?

1 Answer
ANSWER

Babies can smile in utero and right after birth. This is known as the smile reflex and is not in response to any external stimuli. This disappears around 2 months of age. Somewhere between 6 and 12 weeks they will begin genuinely smiling.
