You already know that babies are cute and fun to snuggle. They wear adorable and funny looking clothing. There is no other stage of life when a person can wear loudly patterned clothing without having to deal with snide comments. Most people think that being a baby is pretty easy. The majority of the population seems to think that babies are fully formed adults except for their inability to speak in complete sentences. Babies are actually quite different from adults have their own sets of needs and wants. Here are a few things that you might not already know about babies.

Light is an early sensitivity for babies-it starts happening in utero. Your eyes are very intricate organs that consist of millions of fibers and nerve endings. In order to work the right way your eye muscles need to have extremely precise coordination. Babies usually have working eyes by the end of the first trimester or very beginning of the second trimester. Even as early as six months after conception your baby will show signs of light sensitivity. Another amazing “eye fact” about babies: most Caucasian babies are born with blue eyes but will “settle in” to their permanent eye color by the time they are a few months old. If you are Caucasian your baby’s eyes will probably be blue and then change later. So don’t let yourself get too attached to the blue color. Your baby might have different colored eyes before too long!

Did you know that some babies are born with teeth? Still other babies are born with no hope of having their teeth come in until they hit their first birthdays.

Most parents dread the teething process. It is important, though to not worry too much if your baby seems to start teething early or late. All babies develop at their own paces and even if your other children started teething at a certain age, there is no guarantee that this baby will do the same.

Most people believe that babies do not know how to smile before they are born. If a smile is detected it is blamed on gas. For more than a century people believed that smiling was an activity taught to babies by their parents. Crying seemed to be instinctual so everyone thought it was simply easier for babies to show when they were displeased and that expressing pleasure was something they had to be taught how to do. These theories have been mostly disproved. As ultrasound technology progresses, more people are able to see their babies smiling in the womb. Many doctors are now able to print out pictures for families that show the new baby smiling before he or she is born. Some scientists now believe that the reason babies take so long to “learn” to smile is because the birthing process is so traumatic for them.
