Your Baby’s Cries Tell You More Than You Think

Overstimulated

With babies, there is a perfect amount of stimulation they need. You may find they are engaged and smiling for the first ten rounds of peek-a-boo, but number eleven may set them off.

A cry that they are ready for some relaxation time will usually sound like a “fussy, whiny” cry, according to What To Expect.

Body language is a big one here. Look for signs that your baby is trying to escape the stimulation they now find annoying by turning their head, or body, away from the noise.

Try some white noise to set the mood calmer, and remove your baby from the environment with all the ruckus.
