seriously though...

under 2 months babies don't respond to any stimuli more than they do in the womb.

about 3-4 months is when they start being able to recognize and react to people's faces and remember who's a stranger and who their mother is

most people that study child development say that the baby will develop a concept of self and realize they are a seperate entity from their mother at about 5 months.
Under two months, eh. Just try covering a babies mouth and nose and see if they respond. [not that I suggest any of these] Try not feeding them for a while and see if they respond. Try not changing them and see if they respond. Have you ever had a child?
