She's 10 days old - stop worrying! It's so hard when we are new moms because everything the babies do is a "first" for us! She doesn't have any muscle control yet, not of her legs, her arms, her head or her eyes. So stuff moves around randomly. She can see you when you hold her, which is why you always see new parents right in their baby's face. She'll learn who you are, in time. She can see black & white or sharp contrast - that's why you see a lot of mobiles and baby "books" in very distinguishable shades. She isn't going to focus on anything yet because she doesn't know what anything is. Enjoy watching her. Your instinct will kick in soon and you will have a sense of what's really a problem and what's just normal activity while the brain and all the senses are developing. There's are books on the first 12 months of life that might help you learn about GENERAL milestones at 1 month, 2 months, etc. but that doesn't mean you should panic if you don't see one particular thing. Usually children with serious delays are behind in a whole bunch of areas, not just one. So try not to worry about her eyes, her ears, etc. -- spend time learning who she is and what's she's going to become. It's all a miracle, and 99.99% of the time there is nothing to worry about. She's going to cry and not be comforted, she's going to run a fever someday, she's going to get a heat rash at some point, and so on -- meantime, while you're worrying, you will miss her first smile, her first tooth, and so on. What you're feeling is NORMAL, don't get me wrong - but you and your baby will be happier when you can get past it. And if your parents are giving you a lot of advice and not much support, or acting like you should know everything on Day 1, take a break from them.
