Why is it whenever a little baby smiles, people always say "it's just gas." Since when does gas make people smile? Like I have never sat there with like a girlfriend and they spontaneously giggle and I say "what?" and they say "oh nothing, just gas." So why is that the case when you are like 1 month and younger?
I know a few men in my family who giggle when they have gas...
*ahem*
My mother always said that when infants smiled like that, they were smiling at the angels.
To my mind, that makes more sense than gas.
My friend Gail always says that too, about the angels! She says she first heard it from her mom.
