Who is better at recognizing baby’s cry – mom or dad? French researchers found that both mum and dad are equally good at recognizing it.

Experiments carried out by researchers revealed that parents recognized the cry of their baby accurately 90% of the time. Mothers were found to be 95% accurate, whereas fathers who spent more than four hours with the baby were 90 percent accurate in recognizing their child’s cry. Fathers who spent less than four hours were right in spotting the cry of their baby 75% of the time.
"Both fathers and mothers can reliably and equally recognize their own baby from their cries. The only crucial factor affecting this ability is the amount of time spent by the parent with their own baby."
