Hearing and reacting

2021-11-07 11:38:26
My 4 month old son reacts when things come in front of him But do not react to sounds like toy sound, clapping, calling out his name. Although, have noticed him getting frightened when someone sneezes loudly or there is loud horn outside.. When do the babies react to these sounds and when their name is called, or is there any possibility that we need to get his ears checked.
