How To Tell If Your Baby Is Hungry — Before the Tears Start
Tiny signals show up long before crying — hand‑to‑mouth, rooting, lip smacking, that restless wiggle. Spot them early, feed calmly, and let the timer remember the details for you.
Left/Right memory
Know which side to offer next — no guessing at 3 a.m.
Time since last
Glanceable answer to “do we feed now or wait a bit?”
Duration
See snack vs deep feeds without mental math.
Works offline
Airplane mode friendly — always reliable.
Early hunger cues (the quiet language)
These usually appear before tears. Spotting them buys you calm minutes — and a gentler latch.
Hand-to-mouth
Fists or fingers drifting toward the mouth; little sucking motions.
Tip: log it quickly. Over a week, you’ll see which cues usually appear how long before a feed.
Rooting
Turning head, open mouth, searching for contact along chest/arm.
Tip: log it quickly. Over a week, you’ll see which cues usually appear how long before a feed.
Lip smacking
Tongue/lip movements, soft noises — often just before active hunger.
Tip: log it quickly. Over a week, you’ll see which cues usually appear how long before a feed.
Restless wiggle
Body shifts, little kicks, alert eyes — not upset, just ‘ready.’
Tip: log it quickly. Over a week, you’ll see which cues usually appear how long before a feed.
Cue cluster
Two or more cues together often mean ‘feed soon.’
Tip: log it quickly. Over a week, you’ll see which cues usually appear how long before a feed.
Crying (late cue)
Feeding still works here, but calming first may help with latch.
Tip: log it quickly. Over a week, you’ll see which cues usually appear how long before a feed.
Why tracking turns guessing into knowing
Sleep blurs memory. A quick log keeps a clear timeline — start, duration, which side, and how long since the last feed. Patterns emerge gently, without pressure.
Time since last feed
The answer you need for ‘now or later?’ at a glance.
Left/Right memory
Balancing sides becomes automatic.
Duration
See snack vs deep feeds without overthinking it.
Works offline
Reliable in planes, hospitals, rural areas — anywhere.
Next expected feed
Plan short outings with confidence.
Gentle stats
Notice trends without pressure or targets.
Quick notes
‘Sleepy latch’ or ‘fussy before’ adds context you’ll value later.
Simple timeline
Your nights, made readable.
What it felt like when I finally knew
“I started seeing that hand‑to‑mouth shows up about 30–40 minutes before a feed. We could settle in calmly instead of rushing.”
“Rooting used to scare me because I thought we were ‘late.’ Now it’s a gentle nudge that we’re right on time.”
“Logging didn’t make me obsess — it let me stop guessing. I could just watch my baby relax as they latched.”
“Knowing ‘time since last feed’ made supermarket trips simple. If we had 90 minutes, we had time.”
