Of course. Being Deaf doesn't mean that you can't laugh, giggle, or smile. The baby wouldn't be able to hear herself/himself laugh obviously, but he/she has no limitations expressing amusement. Unless a mental retardation is associated with the deafness, Deaf people are just like hearing people with one exception. They can't hear. =] They drive cars, go to work, earn degrees, get married, etc.
Yeah :(My baby is deaf from his left ear :(
do something funny to make a baby laugh like a silly face. but dont do something to wierd or the baby will cry
If the baby is taught sign language, then the baby will think in sign language.
Because audults think it cute
Typically after birth, the doctor will perform tests to see how the baby responds to various noises. When no response is triggered by any noises made, the baby is presumed deaf until further tests are conducted.
they can probably see it
You do something the baby likes then it will laugh at you and like you i did it with my little brother
Tell her a joke, a silly story, make it up as you go along. make her laugh, make her laugh, make her laugh! If that doesn't work leave your fly zip open and pretend to be deaf.
tickle him say tatata
they laugh because they think you look and sound like an idiot!
It is more of a feeling that you want your child to be like you: there is honesty in stating the fact. Many deaf people do not see an advantage to hearing; in fact there is quite a controversy over the collinear implant solution that would restore hearing for some deaf people. However, the child will have an advantage in learning sign language to communicate with her deaf parent. Having access to language as a toddler aids learning skills.
Just say it.
