In the clinic, we often come across parents consulting about their babies’ hearing. The baby is 3 months old and has recently found that he is not sensitive to sound and does not catch up well with sound; he occasionally reacts to toys like clappers and other toys that are shaken in his ears, and basically does not react to adults clapping in his ears or talking, but he blinks when he sees adults clapping in his ears. They can laugh out loud, occasionally babble with adults, and occasionally babble and hum themselves, is there a hearing problem in babies? In fact, the vast majority of babies have a hearing response at birth, one step ahead of visual development.
