4 Month old making weird laughing noise

Dannieo · Apr 12th, 2012, 17:25 PM

This might be me, but my 4 month old seems to be a bit bonkers.

He started trying to laugh about two weeks ago, and he was making a sort of throaty "urrrrhhhh" noise while smiling.

Now he started doing it all the time, without any stimulus (That we can see), today for instance, he was sat on my knee about ten minutes after his bottle and we were watching come dine with me, he was looking at the TV and then stuck his chin out and went "urrrrrhhh" about three times. He wasn't smiling, just had his interested face on. I started laughing and he turned to look at me, smiled and did it again.

Is this him laughing or is he experiementing with a new noise he's discovered he can make? He still "talks" and cries in his normal voice, but when he makes this noise he sounds like he's been on 60 Woodbine for the last 20 years!!!!!

I'm not overly worried, he was checked over at the doctors last week and she said he's perfect

I'm just curious if this is normal?!

I am not sure, but Alice does someting similar. It is more like a little hickup that kind of sounds like laughing. She always does it when smiling. Looks like they are getting there!

Thanks Hun, he does get hiccups when he's been laughing (For example if I've been bouncing him on my knee or making silly voices). I think he likes how his new sound feels. xxx
