figuring out what different cries mean

I am having so much trouble figuring out why Christopher is crying. I keep hearing people say that I'll know which cries mean what, but so far I don't have a clue. When he cries, I don't know if he's hungry, tired, wet...

He's just under 4 weeks old. How long did it take you to start to be able to interpret your baby's signals better?

I still can't- I usually can tell if she is hungry by when she ate last.

I can also distinguish her pain cry from her other cries, but that is it.

Re: figuring out what different cries mean

I'm still trying to figure out all the different cries! Its all trial and error, like sunny said the pain cry is different from the other cries.
I also know the whining I want my binky so I can close my eyes and sleep cry. But thats just with Hailey. I still can't figure out all of Zacharys - sometimes I think he cries just to cry.

I think around 6 weeks i was able to distinguish the crys. The pain/gas cry is totally different than the tired or hungry cry. With Jacob the tired or hungry cry sounds like a car that wont start.. Chat Icon

If I had my Baby Whisperer Book I would type them out for you - they have them listed in the book.

I know the tired signs/whine. I am pretty sure I know the hungry cry but other than that its all guesswork.

Ummm my daughter is almost a year old, and the only cry I know is the pain cry. Other then that all I can tell is magnitude -- mad, or really really mad. LOL. I don't think that all babies have different cries, or I'm an idiot. (also likely)
