Accurate?

Found this while surfing. Dunno leh, doesn't seem to work for me. All her cries sound alike leh... Here are the types of baby cries and its meaning:

1. Pain
A sharp scream, followed by a moment of no breathing, and another sharp scream.

2. Hunger
A low pitched cry that rises and falls with a rhythm. The baby will usually root, suck on his or her hands and can't be calmed down.

3. Fatigue
A soft, rhythmic cry as the baby tries to pacify and go to sleep.

4. Boredom
A fake cry that stops when picked up. Wow, even kids get bored and know tricks!

5. Discomfort
A Whiny sound like the fake cry, but doesn't stop when picked up. Baby usually needs a diaper change or is too hot or cold.
