My 3-week old doesn’t interact with me!! What’s wrong?

Take heart, there’s nothing wrong with your baby. He’s just pretty much absorbed by getting used to the world and to everything that is going on inside his tiny body. Give him some more time; meanwhile you need to focus on the one-side interaction and make sure to consistently play with your little one, talk to him, put yourself face to face with him… all for the sake of establishing a good connection that will help him thrive emotionally, cognitively, linguistically and socially.
