At first, reading about how mothers are supposed to know what their babies need based on their cries, I was disheartened. I can tell when my youngest is angry but that’s about the only meaning I can extract from her wails. I can tell no difference between the hungry cry and the wet diaper cry and I certainly am clueless when it comes to the lonely cry. Am I really supposed to be able to understand what my baby is trying to communicate with me, seriously?
