How about "bringing up wind" or "wind-ing the baby" = burping the  baby

We  should put out a dictionary of the subtle differences in British and 
American  English

A cot is a crib - we usually refer to a basinette or carry-cot  or even a 
cradle for those small first-months beds, but a cot is basically a  bed closed in 
with bars at side and ends, used by babies up to about aged 2  plus.

A pram and a push-chair = strollers.
The pram is the more  closed version which enables a baby to lie down or be 
propped up
The  push-chair is for the older baby who sits and these are usually more  
portable.
Available today are combination pram/push-chairs which save  space, can be 
fitted in the car.

Nappies = diapers

Dummies =  pacifiers

Any more?
