Pterodactyl shriek

Yep, it has arrived in our house. As of yesterday, Nora started letting out an ear-piercing shriek, sometimes when she's happy, other times when she's mad. Good times. I'm trying to ignore it as much as possible in hopes that it goes away quickly. That was really hard to do this morning when she shrieked at our high-strung cat and scared the crap out of him -- I had to seriously stifle a laugh.

Anybody else dealing with this lovely phenomenon?

  • Oh, yes-for a couple weeks now. It actually cracks me up every time.

  • LOL! DD has been doing this since like 1.5 months.  It's hilarious.  Sometimes it's sound overload for me and I put a binky in her mouth and say, "put a sock in it, kid."  As DH says, she's partying!

  • Hah! Yes! I love that you call it a pterodactyl shriek too.
  • LOL! We have a pterodactyl living in our house, too! We actually have been calling him our "pterodactyl baby" since he started making the sounds...toooo funny.
  • i love it when griffin does his dinosaur shrieks!  lol  its so funny and it scares the dogs lol
  • Yes... I've been calling it his "raptor screech" since it is easier to spell than pterodactyl.


  • Well, at least my kid is not the only one who does this... and I do have to admit it's pretty funny.

    I just put her down in her crib, and she is rolling around screeching at the moment. Hopefully she sleeps soon!
