I finally got a chance to go look at the link. -

Cues are ways your baby is telling you what he or she wants. �Many of these cues are nonverbal but may lead to crying when not attended to. �
Yup.

See: �Babies can best follow faces and objects with their eyes and head at a distance of eight-12 inches away. �They respond to contrasting colors and human faces.

Funny. �I keep seeing posts that people are being told that's unusual.

Ps.

Drowsy:

In this state, your baby has smooth body movements and mild startles. �The eyes may open and close and appear heavy lidded, dull, and glazed. �Before interacting, wait to see if your baby will stay asleep or wake up. �To wake up your baby in this drowsy period, give your baby something to see or hear.

You forgot the word Word Heading Drowsy. � It helps when reading for context. �It doesn't say ND kids have glazed eyes. �It says drowsy kids have droopy glazed eyes. �My kids eyes get like that if they're exhausted or sick. �Which leads back to the comment that ND kids look sleepy all the time. �I guess I just don't see it. �Are you talking about kids you know or strangers at the market?

I'm adding "handbag kid" to my collection, along with, "potted plant kid". �A potted plant baby is the opposite of how mine was, who my grandmother nicknamed "Vel" which was short for Velcro.


�I've got my own judgemental-ness about other people's kids. �I used to think they were very skillfully faking it that they were incapable, but that was when I was a kid. �I don't think about the kids now. �That same thought happens about other adults now, even though I really know they're not faking that they can't do stuff, I still get the feeling they're faking it.

If I offended unjustly it was not mean-spiritedly. �I really do find life in general that funny. �
