Baby Talk

So, I heard about this woman who was on Oprah, called the "Baby Whisperer." Her name is Priscilla Dunstan, and she is from Australia. She is a woman who was born with a gift of perfect pitch, photographic memory, and the ability to play a piece of music note for note after hearing it once. She claims to know the sounds that a baby makes, using a universal language to know what your baby needs. There are 5 words that she defines.
Neh: "I'm Hungry"
Eh: "Burp Me"
Owh: "I'm tired"
Eiarh: "I have gas"
Heh: "I am uncomfortable" ie. change my diaper or i am to hot or too cold, etc.

So, I decided to rent the video from the library and we finally watched it tonight, with our friend Grace who has an 8 week old baby. WOW! I was really fascinated! As we were watching the video and hearing the examples of the different "words" we were hearing baby Thomas making the same sounds. While we were watching the video we heard him make the sounds for wanting his diaper changed, having to burp and he was hungry. The hunger one is the easiest to hear. It was really cool!

You can watch a video here that is a news story about Priscilla, and gives a few examples of the 3 of the words. You can watch a video of it here!

Really, quite fascinating! I am excited to listen to Goober!
