Responding to name

My baby just turned 6 m and doesn’t respond to her name. Is that normal?

Does she respond to anything else? Your voice? Noises?

This is what I found on Google... Babies typically begin to respond to their names between 6 and 12 months of age. While some babies may start responding as early as 6 months, consistent response is usually seen around 9 to 12 months. It's a gradual process, starting with recognition of the name, then understanding its meaning, and finally linking it to the action of looking at the speaker.

My son will be 7m in a week and just responded for the first time to his name yesterday but I think that was just because he heard my voice not actually his name

@Gwendolyn she does most of the time. Sometimes she seems distracted?

@Lauren that’s very normal, she will get the hang of it as the months go by ♥️
