Without good hearing a baby cannot learn to speak well and learning will be difficult. If a hearing loss is" found early much can be done to improve his hearing and to help him speak. But first it must be found. A four month old baby, whether awake or sleeping, will likely respond to nearby sounds. Startle responses and crying are common at this age if sharp, loud sounds such as a dish falling or dog barking is heard. A nine month old baby should turn his head toward sounds made at his side or behind. He will likely look toward a Mr. and Mrs. Wm. nearby ringing telephone.
