Dunstan Baby Language

On Oprah Winfrey’s show (a one month old episode) they showed a lady (Dunstan) who claimed to understand baby’s language by special sounds that babies make before crying. It’s an interesting idea I like it but how reliable it is? From my own experience there are certain cry patterns or signs you can look for to know what a baby wants but you can never know for sure

Sounds: 

Neh-for hunger.

Owh-baby’s sleepy.

Heh-for discomfort.

Eair-for gas.

Eh-for burp.

    :) Imagine.. I didn’t read the article wala ana a mom to figure out but from my cats (which i consider babies), they actually do have a pattern of some sort, fa sub7an allah, if animals have it akeid human babies do….

    LOL at the last two sounds!

    Dustan has an excellent hearing ability but not everyone does. It’s not as easy as it looks, some sounds are easier to notice why others are impossible to tell like “owh” (when not followed by a yawn) and “eair.”

    I saw this too and ordered the DVD. A few words were easy to spot, but others took a bit more time. I watched the part i needed to pay attention to, and got the hang of it. I was amazed when my daughter started saying the sounds, or rather i guess when i started hearing them. It works, i settled her and she was much happier. I think its awesome
