Not responsive to sound

My LO had her 3 month physical check up, she did not turn towards the sound yet she was started when someone sneezes loudly from a distance. Is it normal? Can hearing developmental be slow for certain babies? Concerned mummy here.

Dont worry mummy, like u my LO failed both his hearing test at 3 & 4 month physical hearing examination. Polyclinic doc even gave me a referral letter to ENT at kkh but im very certain my baby can hear hence i cancel the appointment. Here's what u can do and that's what i did. Use a toy or anything object that can make a sound, either lay her on the bed or let her sit on ur lap. Then without her seeing the object, gently shake the object beside her ears. Watch whether will she turn towards it, record it down with ur hp. So during next visit to the clinic, u can show to doc that ur LO is not deaf 😉 So not to worry ya! All the best ~
