Sometimes when it's not annoying me too much, I will whine back at her and she usually starts laughing. Other times we ignore her or tell her to wait and she stops. She usually does it when she's hungry and I'm prepping her food, or when she's bored and wants attention. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-whine#post-1212313 Tue, 12 Nov 2013 21:35:23 +0000 BabyBoecksMom 1212313@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@shopaholic: we learned all of ours from babysignlanguage.com :-) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-whine#post-1212105 Tue, 12 Nov 2013 19:37:33 +0000 shopaholic 1212105@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@BabyBoecksMom: I think I'm going to sign up for a class!</p> <p>@ValentineMommy: I've noticed the whining was less today - maybe because the tooth really broke through yesterday. Ah! IDK how I'll handle it for every single tooth though! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-whine#post-1211035 Tue, 12 Nov 2013 12:35:47 +0000 LuLu Mom 1211035@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep at 13 months old she whines or throws a fit when she can't express what she wants. She gets very frustrated quickly. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-whine#post-1210989 Tue, 12 Nov 2013 12:25:18 +0000 BabyBoecksMom 1210989@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@shopaholic: It really did help! We could narrow down what she was wanting because she could tell us more, no, or all done. Just those alone made such a difference. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-whine#post-1210243 Tue, 12 Nov 2013 09:16:09 +0000 ValentineMommy 1210243@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh goodness, yes. DS is 9 months and it's SO annoying. His is due to teething pain. I feel so bad, but I just want to hide when he whines. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-whine#post-1210017 Tue, 12 Nov 2013 07:21:30 +0000 chopsuey 1210017@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@shopaholic: since dd is older we just tell her to stop faking it. She doesn't fake cry much, but will sometimes when the baby cries. Ahhhh</p> <p>My son has recently started fake crying. Omg it's cute for now, but we just ignore him. Lol. And he stops. If we give him attention he usually tries to milk it and will fake it for longer. :P </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-whine#post-1209861 Mon, 11 Nov 2013 23:55:15 +0000 shopaholic 1209861@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@BabyBoecksMom: Reviving this old thread... did sign language stop the whining?</p> <p>@chopsuey: What did you do about the fake crying?</p> <p>Since the onset of teeth coming in for real, the whining and fake crying is constant. It stops if I divert her attention, distract, or make her laugh - but I can't be entertaining her the whole time she is awake. What can I do to nip this whining in the bud? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-whine#post-455162 Wed, 19 Dec 2012 10:38:09 +0000 winniebee 455162@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@chopsuey119: Look at you, posting while in L&amp;D.... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-whine#post-455105 Wed, 19 Dec 2012 10:25:19 +0000 chopsuey 455105@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep! She's queen of the fake cry too </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-whine#post-455091 Wed, 19 Dec 2012 10:19:08 +0000 SugarplumsMom 455091@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh man. DD is almost 6 months and has been whining like crazy! Whenever she doesn't want to sleep, she whines and it feels like she's whining all day! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-whine#post-455058 Wed, 19 Dec 2012 10:09:32 +0000 winniebee 455058@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep! It's mostly when he's not feeling well or is bored of whatever activity he is doing. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-whine#post-455054 Wed, 19 Dec 2012 10:08:01 +0000 Weagle 455054@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep. Right now it's mostly because she's also sick and just wants some love. I've noticed that she usually doesn't whine if she naps well...if only I could actually control that... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-whine#post-455043 Wed, 19 Dec 2012 10:00:01 +0000 BabyBoecksMom 455043@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>ooooooh yes. Hers is more of a coughing whine. We're trying to do sign language with her so we can figure out what she really wants. It was really frustrating for a few months because she whined for everything. I felt bad because I couldn't always figure out what she wanted. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-whine#post-455030 Wed, 19 Dec 2012 09:56:17 +0000 mediagirl 455030@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My daughter is just 6 months old but she has started making this whining noise when she wants to be picked up. It started at mealtime. We would put her in her high chair, feed her and when she wanted more or when she was done, she would make the whining noise. Now she is doing it more and more because she is sick and clingy and needy. :(</p> <p>Does your lo whine? What age are they and any tips for nipping this in the bud? It's too early for my good baby to start whining!! </p>
