Yes, there is... He's not actually smiling, I know that it is nice to think that he is but it is actually a natural reflex for babies when they have gas.
That goes away after a few months, just like the reflex when you brush along their foot, and their toes spread out.

No, there is no answer. But the old folk saying is they are playing with the angels. I think it's cute, but at the same time in the back of your head you are wondering what the hell are they smiling about because they don't know anything yet. It's a beautiful experience.

Newborn babies smile reflexively -meaning it's just a movement of their facial muscles and they don't really know what they're doing. After three or four months they start smiling back at you when you smile at them.

I've heard it's gas. I don't believe that though. I think it's because baby's are so peaceful. They don't have a care in the world & they know they are loved. I also believe babys still remember being in the womb at that point so they can still "play with angels."

trust me, wait. I went through school with a newborn and it was so hard. I was much older and married, so i cant imagine how difficult it would be at 18 when not financially stable or married. you are only 18... wait

While they are awake everyone smiles at them.
We learn by imitation.
