bleatings
Noises from lambs
Bleatings are the cries sheep and goats make—wavering, high-pitched sounds.
The word extends to any whining or complaining speech: I'm tired of his constant bleatings about how unfair life is.
The plural suggests repeated or ongoing complaints rather than a single instance.
