this may have been covered previously................

As most..(all??) of you know, I've got a 2.5 month old baby boy and he's cute as a button, and making all kinds of baby noises.

I talk to him like he's grown up. Maybe it's a fluke, but he smiles (bigger) when I make the same sounds that he makes.

I don't want to stunt his development, but is my making "baby noises" going to help or hinder his development?

Is it better if I do a combination?

(Just a sidebar, holy crap I feel so damn stupid for NOT remembering this from when is big brother was a baby, but.....I don't.)

Of course it was ONLY 9 years ago)
