My son is 2 months old and is absolutely perfect. He never cries (unless he's hungry or wet) .. he just hangs out and is very pleasant. He doesn't sleep much throughout the day (always afraid he's going to miss out on something! :)
but yet he sleeps really good throughout the night!
He's content doing his own thing but also loves to cuddle! He isn't demanding whatsoever.
Is he always going to be this happy, content, and mellow? or will he get more fussy as he gets older?
My brother in law's son (who is turning 1 this weekend) is very hyper (has been since he was 2 day old!) he gets bored easily and requires constant attention.
Do all babies go through that? or is it just a personality trait?
I haven't been around many babies .. so I'm not sure what to expect when my son gets older.
My son just has such a wonderful personality .. will it last throughout his toddler years?

mine was and still is just like yours. well my 2nd never cries, even when he's hungry or wet, he doesn't cry, he is now almost 8 months old, and he is still just like yours, happy and content. nothing bugs him. we will have to wait and see if they will change:) but I don't think they will change much.

Your question puts a smile on my face. You have a wonderful baby and I am sure that the personality that he has will only grow more wonderful as the years go by. Love, love, and more love will keep things positive for him, and for you. I will suggest though, that when he is ready to start teething, cheerios does the trick. Try to put off candies and sodas as long as possible. Feed him healthy vegetables and a variety of foods, he will not be a picky eater that way when he grows up. I have a 2 yr. old grandson who also has a great disposition, and he is very smart. But, the terrible 2's and 3's can be a hand ful. Expect temper tantrums. This is when potty training, learning to eat with silverware, and sleeping in a bed, rather than a crib. He will begin to test you. You must be firm and strong, and thats not always easy, no one likes to hear a child cry or scream. Bedtime is bedtime, read a short story so he can settle down, a kiss good night, and go. Give him a routine at night, bath, snack, teeth, story, sleep. Sounds like you will be a terrific mom.

That sounds like my brother when he was a baby...he is 2 now and is very needy and wants mommy all the time...he wakes up in the middle of the night crying sometimes and wants mommy to come see him. He's a good kid but can be very wanting and whiny.
My daughter was a pain in her first few months. She would get up every 2 hours to eat for the first 2 months and she would cry and scream over everything. She didn't start sleeping thru the night till she was 4 months old. She is 2 now and takes a few naps a day, sleeps all night and is happy all the time. I guess they all differ and do what they want.

As he begins to get older he will become more adventrous.My son is 5 months old and was very happy til he discovered his hands and feet and became very frustrated. When he begins to babble he might become frustrated because he cant get words right thats how babies r lol when he becomes a toddler he will become an entirely different person as he explores his world

My daughter (almost 3 months) is just like that too! We're so lucky...not all babies are like this. I have a friend with a baby the same age as mine, and she's so whiny...I hoep they stay this way!

Oh, he'll get frustrated as a toddler... but he'll be more good-natured even in bad moments than more tempermental children.
I have one of each.

sorry sweetie, but no! =0)
sure, he will probably still have that laid back personality but he will go through stages... like the terrible 2's!

A happy - 'good' baby will continue to be good as long as he feels loved and cared for. Now you are his whole life, as he grows so will his interests, he will remain 'good' as long as you are by his side for him! Good luck!

as long as you are happy, the child is happy. Never invite the children to misery.
