DD started doing this too about that age. She is 27 weeks and now and i call her a "parakeet". Quite an ear-splitting screech too

yes my dd is 4 months old and makes some quite strange seal like noises, bit frightening at times! ill confess a pfb moment here, i took her to the gp as she was making strange noises, she had a cold at the time, and i thought it was because she was having trouble breathing. The gp said erm.... think she is just talking to you!

DS was silent at 4 months. Much like he was at 7 months, 12 months, 18 months...

Ds is having a whingy day today, nothing appears to be good enough for him. I've cuddled him, played with him, put him on the floor to roll about, bounced him in his chair, put the TV on , had music on, sung to him...

and still he is fussing

Sorry, meant to add he is a noisy baby anyway but today it is whingy noise rather than happy, contented baby noise

My ds was like this at this age too. He still never stops babbling and shouting all day and he's 13 months! He was very noisy at 4 months, even in the pushchair he cood and sounded just as you describe. Either that or he was cring, never quiet either way!

DD1 very quite at 4mths, dd2 at that age if she wasn't screaming (Very demanding) she was singing .

DD went through a phase at 4months sounding like Ann from Little Britain.

DD is nearly 5mths - I was just thinking that she sounded like Ann from LB too! She especially likes to have a conversation when she has boob in her mouth which can be a bit embarrassing in public!
