The correct answer is D - Crying. Crying is generally the last feeding cue that a baby may exhibit when they are hungry and looking to feed. By the time a baby is crying, they are indicating a sense of urgency and a strong need for feeding. It is important for caregivers and parents to be attentive to the earlier feeding cues such as rooting, sucking on hands, making sucking motions, and bringing hands to the mouth, so that the baby can be fed before reaching the point of crying.
