Decoding Tessa's Cries



I'm-So-Hungry / Are-We-Done-Yet Cries
These will come in the form of (extremely) loud wailing, usually when she's hungry. Sometimes, these come when she's impatient while we are dressing/changing her. Her eyes will be tightly shut, her mouth opened wide and she'll be wailing on top of her voice until her whole face is red. She will only stop when her mouth finds my breast. Sometimes, she'll still sob in between sips of her milk.

Can-Someone-Come-And-Look-At-Me Cries
These will come in the form of short cries. This usually happens when she's left alone to play on her own, gets bored and wants some attention. This is what we classify as "fake cries".

I-Can't-Free-My-Hands-No-Matter-How-Hard-I-Try Cries
These come in short rhythmic cries (longer than above). She hates to be swaddled and will struggle very hard to free her hands. Often she'll do so by kicking her legs very hard to loosen the cloth diaper we used to swaddle her. When failing to free her hands, she will first deliver her signature frown, start to look frustrated before breaking into such cries, hoping that we'll give in and free her.
