cries mean a lot of things; but manily they either mean “i’m hungry;feed me” or “i just crapped/ pissed on my self change me” or a classic for y nephews” hold me so i can drive you insane”

Yeah. I am not yet a mother but I already know the meaning as to why baby cries. It is basically because they are hungry, feeling unwell or would like to ask some of their mother’s affection. Playing, giving them milk and cuddling them will already stop them from crying.
