Answer 1

Your baby isnt even 6 weeks old yet. Its normal for them to not respond to noises, their senses are over stimulated.

All newborns get hearing tests, and your GP told you they were fine.

I wouldnt worry about it too much.

Answer 2

All children are different and respond to differently to noises and sounds. You have a very young baby and things can change with some time. If you are still concerned about a month from now then you should request to have the child be seen by an audiologist. Honestly, most newborns can tolerate a lot of sound and many sleep through major noise. Give him some time and follow up your doctor.

Answer 3

IF YOU ARE CONCERNED
i would ask to take the baby to a specialist... when you are clapping your baby should have a different response not blinking only... hope everything goes well

however you should trust what your GP said if that mothers intuition doesn't kick in and tell you they are wrong

Answer 4

i dont think there is a problem, but you can get it checked out if you are still concerned

my baby FAILED about 2-3 of the hearing screens before he finally PASSED. he can definitely hear and reacts to sound, but until 2 weeks old when he passed i was definitely worried.
