My baby is only 5 months and 8 days old. He responds to sounds. Laughs at people. But sometimes he doesn't look at the voice and shout. Sometimes he looks back when he hears the sound and sometimes he doesn't look. And hearing the sound makes the eyes bigger. Once he wakes up, he does not sleep. Do I need to go to the doctor?
