When Do Babies Start Cooing? (Plus, How to Encourage This Cute Milestone)

Your baby’s first coo? PURE MAGIC! 🥰

Cooing usually starts around 6-8 weeks—those sweet “ahh” sounds are the first step toward language development! 🗣️✨ But don’t stress if your little one isn’t cooing right at 6 weeks—every baby is different! 💛

Want to encourage cooing? Talk to your baby in a sing-song voice—they’re listening and learning long before they start talking! 👶🎶

If cooing hasn’t started by 3 months, check in with your pediatrician.
