babies need plenty of stimulation..interaction...maybe he /she is bored...talk/play..all develop at their own rate!...(If you are worried for any other reason then see HEALTH VISITOR/GP....for a baby check up and reassurance...if you have low mood/post natal depression then it could be sensed by baby..and you should get some help for you)!

she could be hard of hearing. Get her hearing checked.

Every thing is a worry with babies. EVERYTHING. At least it is in my family. My daughter had three adorable daughters in a row. We talk. We read. It always ends up that she goes to the doctor and learns to worry or not. So far so good.  Millie and Ed seem to have the right answers. But just to be very very sure call your doc.  Let us know, imbo. : )

 When baby is about 7 months old, child prefers his Mom or Dad to strangers and may even develop separation and stranger anxiety. They start understanding that they are a separate person rather than an extension of you and are scared of this independence at first.
