Moms: Could you always tell from your baby's cry when he or she was hungry from all of the other variations of crying?

1 Answer

Answer :

Yes. And when she was tired, hungry, uncomfortable. And yes, I can tell what other babies are crying from, too. And nothing pisses me off more than a kid wailing in the store because he or she is tired and Mom threatening the child with nap time if he or she doesn’t stop. I just want to slap them. I can’t really tell you what it is exactly that I hear. It’s just a pitch or…something. I guess the same way you can tell the difference between an adult crying out of fear, or out of sadness, you know?
