grunting?

My LO is two weeks old.  He doesnt seem to do the "cooing" that little babies do.  He just always seems to be grunting.  It almost like he gets mad.  Has anyone else experienced this with LO?

My LO too. He's the loudest baby ever. Always grunting and making noise. I asked the dr and she said it's normal. Some babies are just really noisy.

Yup, this. DD was doing this like crazy one night last week, to the point where DH almost left and slept in the guest room. Definitely one of her not so cute baby sounds, but still normal.

My LO does the same thing. I must be tired enough to sleep through it, but DH has spent many a night in the guest room because it wakes him up.

Babies don't start cooing until they are at least 1-2 months. Grunting is normal for newborns.  My DS coos but also grunts a lot, esp at night.

DD grunts all the time and makes so much noise. DH and I have a hard time sleeping because she is so loud! I asked my pedi and she just laughed and said that's normal.

DS is also a grunter. I had to turn the monitor off b/c his grunting was enough to keep me awake. If he cries, he is definetely loud enough to be heard! He has started cooing and making social noises though. It happened right at the month mark. He smiles and "talks" a lot to his sister.

Little babies don't really coo. Mine grunts as well, especially when he's hungry and first latches on, lol.

My son is 4 weeks and he grunts all the time...I think it's cute and from what I know it's normal.  I'm a pretty big talker so I just say he's taking after me early lol
