When did your baby start to laugh?

My daughter is 4 months old and I dont think she is laughing yet. She smiles and makes a little high pitched shreik and some other type of noise, and babbles alot. But still nothing that resembles a giggle or "normal" laugh? Should I be worried?

Answer:
not at all ,my baby started when she was around 4 months old , so its nothing to worry about ,give her a bit of time
Ask your doctor.
My boy laughed loudly when I tickled his tummy when he was about 2 months old.
Yes you should ask your doctor.
But you shouldnt worry. Babies develop differently, she might be taking some time before laughing outloud.
My baby is 3 mo. and 1 week and he smiles a lot. He only laughs outloud when I tickle him, but not yet byhimself.
Try finding your baby's 'ticklying spot' and see what happens.
Every baby has its own learning period.
In 4th month, baby should be able to recognise you, baby will smile when she feels good.

My daughter who is just 7 month old started giggling in 6th month.
I think that you should not be worried. I can't quite remember when my son started laughing, I think it was about 2 months old, but every baby is different and they progress differently too. My nephew is the same age as my son and he just really started laughing when he turned about 10 months old. He had more of a quiet laugh then a loud one when he was younger. I think when they smile they are really laughing on the inside. You don't need to worry and i think if you ask the doctor they would tell you the same.
my baby has only laughed a couple of times and she is 5mnths. She was really laughing when sil played peek a boo with her but otherwise she hardly ever laughs. She is cooing though.
