Babies: 0 - 3 Months

What does your baby's cry sound like?

I've noticed that when DS really gets wailing his cry sounds like "geh-geh-geh" with a distinct G sound. This is typically his hungry cry.

According to Dunstan's Baby Language, which was featured on Oprah and has been posted on this board a few times, the hungry cry is a "neh" sound with an N.

Now I know all babies are different but I'm just curious if anyone else's baby makes the "geh" sound or something different all together.

  • my sons cry, if considered a cry at all, is a little squeal!! even when hes really hungry, its like "eh eh eeeeeeeeeeee" he even did it at his two week check up and i asked the dr if that was ok and he had no problem with it and said it was absolutely fine!!

  • My LO actually goes "ahhhhhhh!" it's quite funny. Plus with his hungry cry he goes "ah ah ah".  I think it's adorable.

  • When DS is REALLY ticked off at us and is seriously wailing, it sounds just like a baby pig squeel. I feel really bad that I find it kind of funny lol

  • My first yelled "Geee!" when he was really upset.  My second doesn't have anything really distinct yet.  He almost never cries, he's such a mellow baby.
  • When DS gets really riled up he does an "uh-waaah" sound and then after 4-5 he has to catch his breath and has just the "waaah" sound which to me sounds like a goat.

    He is a very noisy baby compared to when DD was small; he grunts all the time with lots of different noises/sounds. Most distinct are the pig grunt, the "eh", and something very close to a puppy's whimper. He will grunt for anywhere from 5 to 40 minutes and still be fully asleep, needless to say his grunting doesn't let DH and I get much sleep.
