  • Ever heard your baby cry for about 5 or 6 seconds, and then pause for the next 20 seconds? This means that your baby has been alone for a while and now desperately needs your attention.
  • This type of cry is very similar to a calling cry with one little catch – if you don't get in there right away, the crying becomes hysterical quickly.
  • If you hear a pain cry once, you'll never confuse it with any of the others. This crying is flat and constant.
  • Babies deal with all kinds of bodily functions like us, from having gas to peeing and pooping. And these can cause them more discomfort than you think!
  • Sleep is another problem for babies – sometimes they just can't! In this case their crying sounds like an offended and smooth whining, followed by loads of yawning.
  • A discomfort cry sounds very irritated and often comes together with fidgeting. Your baby can also flail their arms and legs and arch their backs.
  • This one is extremely common – your baby cries, you try doing everything you can but still can't figure out what's wrong. Easy, your baby is simply frustrated or bored!
