Does Your Baby Know His/Her Name Yet?

[babymello]

What age did your baby start to recognize his/her name?

I know it's a process and it takes time, but when does it officially begin.

Something I always thought about.

When I would say my child's name she would smile, but that doesn't mean she knows her name. It could've been the way I said it. My tone that she likes. My expressions....

What do you think? Share your input.

Thanks,
Mello

I think my LO thinks his name is baby! He smiles at me when I say 'baby', and if he's fussing I usually say "hold on baby!" and he will start calming down! I don't call him Joseph often enough.

Bella doesn't. I've read that it's not until about 6 months that they recognize their name.

Lol, I'm like that I always call LO bubbin or bubba, must start using his name more!

Still find it weird when anyone mentions his name!
