Mommies with newborns, this is very interesting!!!  email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 89/100. Jemmifire (3407) 6 years ago

So there's a woman who has photographic hearing and can remember sounds by hearing them once.
She worked with BROWN UNIVERSITY about baby cries. She has a son and noticed a pattern, and Brown was studying baby cries, so she got together and told them the pattern she saw. Brown was studying the hysterics part of the cry, and she said she noticed a pattern before the cry.

She found that babies use 5 "words" that equal how the baby feels and here they are

Neh = Hungry
Owh = Sleepy
Heh = Discomfort
Eair = Lower Gas
Eh = Burp


This woman was on Oprah today and she said she's tested this theory on 1000's of babies and it's been proved to actually work.

What you want to listen for is what the baby "says" before he/she cries.

Funny thing is, when my son got hungry after the show he actually did make the "neh" sound. :)

Good tips for new mommies.
This works for babies up to 4 months old.

Excellent tips. Where was this knowledge when my daughter was small? Now that she talks (age 15) she just says, "Mom, I'm hungry." But she still expects me to jump right to it. Thankfully no tears after her hunger announcement....She just leans on me until food appears.

Well done. A discussion worth visiting.

Thank you very much :)
I have an almost 3 year old, so I would have loved this when she was younger.

I also have a 2 month old son, so it'll help me out for the next 2 months even though he is barely fussy!

Thanks for visiting this topic!

I saw another of your posts where you asked people to respond to some of your zero response posts. I can help you out as to why this post has no responses. You did not ask a question. While the post is very interesting, there is no question for which to respond.


myLot reputation of 89/100. Jemmifire (3407)  6 years ago

Thanks for your reply, on other forums I post on we usually are able to chat about a topic.

Thanks.

Discussions don't have to be questions. When you read an interesting discussion you can comment on it, share your opinion and maybe add your own experience about something similar. This is not a question/answer forum but a discussion forum so there is no need for a question mark behind every discussion we make.

This is very interesting. My kids are all older thatn that, but it would have been a nice theory to be able to test. I'll try to remember it for when my sisters have kids. Hopefully they'll make me an aunt sometime soon.


myLot reputation of 89/100. Jemmifire (3407)  6 years ago

Awesome, thanks!
I took notes during the show haha.

This is cute :). I think most mothers natural instincts learn what each sound their baby makes means. I never knew there was a pattern like this that was common with most babies, I always thought each one had their own.

I'm not planning on having more babies but I will definitely start listening to every baby I see from now on (hope I still remember this when I become a grandmother lol)


myLot reputation of 89/100. Jemmifire (3407)  6 years ago

yeah I usually know what my babies want, but its def interesting to know theres actually a pattern!!

I watched that show yesterday! I have a 2 1/2 month old so I found it very interesting. So far the only sounds she's been making since then are the neh sound. lol I really hear it though. It's crazy! It just makes me want to jump and feed her faster cause now I know that she's trying to tell me that she's hungry.


My baby

My little one is 6 months old now and doesn't really make the 'baby words', but when he was younger, both my dh and I could hear it, especially the Neh (hungry) and the sleep one ~ can't remember what it is, something like ouw.

That show was so informative.
