A member asked:
Is it normal for my one month old baby to avoid eye contact sometimes?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Your 1 month old can see clearly a foot or so and will gaze into your eyes for a time before deflecting.It is as if they fill up with the vision and must look away for a period before they can look back. Their ability to hold a gaze will gradually increase over time.
