Q. #AskTheExpert goggle says peek a boo is crucial game and failure to responds indicates significant problems. my 7.5 month old baby can sit, crawl and tries to stand with support. she plays, smiles and makes aa sound alone. she likes looking at mirror and shadows. she also signals us to be picked up by raising hands or chest. however, her response to peek a boo sometimes makes me concerned like sometimes she will thoroughly enjoy it and laugh out loud. other times, she will just observe us when we come out with no laugh or smile. is this inconsistent behaviour while playing peek a boo concerning.
