My DD seems to have found her voice. It's very cute, and she's really expressive. However, instead of of crying, she makes a high pitched scream. Did any of your kids do this? It's sort of a novelty right now, but I can imagine this won't be cute for very long.

CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Yeah... Madeleine does this atm too. When she screams I know she is frustrated or just figuring out how to use her voice. She cries when she is upset or needs something done for her.
I think sometimes it's about seeing how their voices work and what they can do with them.
I like the fact Madeleine screams as well as cries. Screaming I know I can be a sec before I get to her. But crying I get to straight away!
Also the screaming is SO very cute!

It's getting higher and screetchier. She's got laughing screetch and her frustrated screetch, and we're having more of the latter currently.

Yeah, we have the happy screech, the "singing voice", the varying range of sound and then the full on "I'm-throwing-a-temper-tantrum-scream".
He's trying so hard right now to communicate but hasn't figured out how. He knows "momom" and "gahgee" but nothing else has come forth other than the various babble and screeches/whine.
I have to be really careful sometimes to hurry over (If I am not wearing him) as I can't really guage from his expression as to which mood he's in as he's been teething and can go from "ok" to "not ok" in less than 10 seconds some days.

I think pretty much every baby does this at some point. What I do (once I know they're just being loud vs experimenting with their voice) is to lightly cover the mouth and say "no screaming". I end up doing it a million times a day, but the baby eventually gets it that it's not ok to scream. I've done this successfully with all my other kids, so when Abel starts the loud thing, I'll be doing it with him too.

I'm almost positive I don't care what you think
Yes..Emily did this and it drove me nuts! It didn't last long, it was just a phase I guess. Although, now, when she gets really upset she has this "dog whistle" type sound that just sends chills down my back and makes my blood pressure sky rocket...it's never been cute.

We're trying to correct that, but I find it helps when both partners aren't yelling questions and answers back and forth at each other from other rooms of the house.I think pretty much every baby does this at some point.
