Play Play Y our baby will stay awake longer and longer as she gets older. She will recognize your voice, your face and the way you smell.
New babies like to look at faces and most like to be held.
Your baby has her own personality. You will soon learn if she likes to be quiet or active. By two or three weeks of age, she will give you clues to tell you if she wants to play or not. Hold the baby, looking up at you, about eight inches away and look into her eyes. When she wants more attention she may start sucking, cooing, looking back or molding her body to yours.
