Baby Language?

Has anyone tried watching the Dunstan Baby Language videos?  I didn't want to spend $ to buy it, but I was able to find some info on You Tube.  I watched the videos yesterday and I've been trying to decode Carina's cries since and I'm sort of amazed at how well it works.

Here are the videos if you're interested in trying...

Some background about the 'Baby Language' program and examples of "neh", which means "I'm hungry": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w6CFSGAueyo

Examples of "owh" which means "I'm tired": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4thCfNO2qsw&feature=related

Examples of "eh" which means "Burp me": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ttKuF9tBfT4

Examples of "eairh" which means "I have gas": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=plqhdBHIGm8&feature=related

Examples of "heh" which means "I'm uncomfortable": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PjZ4TI9sKfA&feature=related

    E is highly entertained by the first video, lol.  That is absolutely his hungry cry.  These are awesome!

    This is interesting, but DS says 'eh' all the time...so it can't mean 'burp me' for him that often, lol. I think these sound similar to his cries (like the hunger one)  but I don't think these specific meanings could all apply individually.

    I remember seeing this on Oprah years ago and thinking, "when I have a baby, I need to remember this!"  Thanks for reminding me.  This morning, I got up to feed DD around 5 am then put her down for a nap.  She started fussing and I listened for a little bit.  I can tell if its a tired fussing, I need a change or a burp fussing etc...  Well I heard the "neh" sound and decided to try to feed her again.  She had just had what I thought was a full feeding, but she jumped back on the boob for another 20 minutes!  Then promptly fell sound asleep for 3 hours. 
    I give up trying to get a ticker.  I have a DD that is 2.5 years old and is awesome.  Maybe I'll add a quote to distinguish myself.  Hmmm.  How about...
