FAQs
What is a newborn crying sound effect?
It is a recording of a very young baby crying, thin and high, with quick breaths between the cries. This page covers the hungry wail, the fussy whimper, sobbing, the startle cry and a first cry.
Where can I get newborn crying sounds for a video?
Describe the cry you want and generate it here, instead of searching stock sites for a baby that sounds too old. The sounds on this page came from the prompts printed beside them, so you can adapt any one.
How do I make a custom newborn crying sound?
Pick the kind of cry first, then the breathing and the pitch. A prompt such as "a newborn fussing, soft stuttering whimpers and small grunts" tells Morphic to stay small and quiet.
How is a newborn cry different from a toddler cry?
A newborn cry is thin, high and weak, with short gasps and almost no words or sound shapes. A toddler cry is louder and fuller, with sobbing and sometimes a few words. Name "newborn" in your prompt to keep it on the tiny side.
Can I use these newborn crying sounds commercially?
Yes, audio generated on paid plans can be used commercially. See our terms for full licensing details. Because the cry is generated for you, no stock baby recording is shared with other creators.
Why does my baby cry sound too loud or too old?
Prompts that say only "baby" often come back like a toddler. Add "newborn", "thin" and "tiny", and ask for quiet breaths between cries. If it is still too strong, pick the whimper over the wail.
