Instead, they have a language all their own. Since adults speak a different language, it can be tricky at first to figure out what a crying baby is saying. Dealing with a crying infant is most upsetting when you can't understand what your baby needs or can't make the crying stop. However, with observation, patience, and the experience of trying different things, you can learn a lot about what your baby is saying with his cries. All infants cry some of the time.
Some infants cry very little while others cry a great deal.
Some are easy to calm, while others can be more difficult to soothe. Some babies cry very intensely while others whimper. Babies cry when they are hungry or sick. They cry when they feel uncomfortable, like when they are wet or too hot or too cold. Babies cry if they are lonely, bored, or tired, and when they are in pain.
