Understanding a newborn can be hard enough as it is. However, not knowing what they want when they cry can make life more complicated.
Luckily, several moms shared how you can know exactly what your baby needs.
Types Of Baby Cries
There are nine different types of cries, and each one means something different.
Hungry
As if to suckle, Baby’s tongue sticks to his palate, and the sound that comes out is “neh,” baby needs to eat.
Burp
Knowing when to burp your little one can not always be obvious, but if they make lots of little ‘eh’ sounds, this can be a significant indicator.
Sleepy
The mouth opens wide, the tongue flattens down and recedes, to make the ‘aoh’ sound.
Stomach Pain
The sounds are longer than other cries, and they squirm as they let it all out.
Uncomfortable
The cry for this sounds like ‘heh’ and stands out from many others.
Teething
It is important to note: “This sound is accompanied by increased salivation, and it seems to rub its gums against each other. So you can offer Baby a teething ring.”
Lonely
The heart-breaking cry sounds like ‘Lelaol,’ the pros say
Thirsty
When your newborn needs a drink, they will let out a ‘nah’ sound.
Everything Wrong
When everything is wrong, babies will cry too, and it sounds like ‘ouin.’
