Baby Milestones

My little one is 6 weeks old and is very noisy. She has sounded like this since birth and sometimes it’s like a horn/honking for a few minutes, sometimes it sounds congested or sniffly but then sometimes fine! Seems worse lying down Anyone else find this? I have spoken to gp and health visitor who said fine but I’m ...

My husband does this thing when we talk and I don’t know if it has a name. Here is an example that happened tonight: My husband was talking expressively with his hands, but one of his hands had a knife in it. I said ‘please put the knife down’ as it scares me because we have a toddler running around. He said, “Fine...

My son keeps head butting the wall & radiator, every time we tell him to stop he laughs and keeps doing it.. is this normal? His only 1, will be 2 in April.

My little one has started throwing his head back quite often. It seems to only be when he’s frustrated or tired but I wondered if anyone else is experiencing this?

Has anyone else’s baby said anything other than mama and dada? If so what do they say? My baby walks around and says “Hello” and pretends to answer a phone. 😂

are your LOs speaking yet? Any tips to encourage?

My 3.5y/o has started asking us to repeat what she’s said or certain words from the conversation e.g. “I played with Ethan at pre school today” followed by “can you say Ethan?” when we then repeat it back she just say yes and carries on. Sometimes it just a key word or other times the whole sentence. I don’t if it’s...

My little one is 6 months and 3-6 is too small for her now. She’s in 6-9 however she will wriggle her legs out of them every night. She will squeeze her legs through the poppers or if it’s zipped she’ll just bring her legs up out of the leg holes. Did anyone else’s baby do this and have any advice? She must be so un...

My 3.5 year old son has this habit of having to touch my hair if it’s down or in a ponytail, i know it’s his soothing method as he will twiddle his fingers in his own hair while sucking his fingers when he’s tired and he’s done this since he was 4-5months old. But man it gets annoying.. anyone have any ideas how to ...

My 11m boy always hits the fish tank really hard. I've tried say no and shaking my head but that makes him really happy and shake his head back. I've tried sitting him down with hands on knees but he gets back up to continue. I've carried him away 100 times over he's straight back. I've tried avoiding eye contact to...

The last week my daughter has been an absolute nightmare, we went abroad and her tantrums have been horrible. Its been happening throughout our holiday and a kids party. When I try to hug her she runs off and screams DONT! I try hold her hand and she will roll on the floor and run off. She’s so cranky I don’t know w...

My babe just turned seven months, and I feel like she isn’t babbling/talking enough. She is definitely in her velociraptor stage, and likes to screech. Other than that, she doesn’t “talk “ much. Anyone else’s babes like that?? I’m worried, we have friends whose babies were saying mama and dada at this stage and babb...

Do your babies understand the word “NO” ? Cause my baby seems to do things out of spite when I tell her not to do something . She never listens , determined to do whatever she wants .

So this is my 1st little boy ,up until now I thought his tantrum, getting abit rough with with toys , not like people he don’t know much ( like my relatives he hardley sees) touching him was all normal and its just him becoming more aware of emotions and he would get better. Yesterday I went to my brothers and he h...

My toddler is so naughty lately lots of hitting and biting so we have implemented the naughty corner. She thinks it’s a fun game and will run away and not co operate. We have tried telling her no it’s not nice we don’t hit/ bite. We use our words but I’m just at a loose end with her. When we do tell her off with rai...

My daughter says no words. Mostly making sounds. Only says mama very very rarely. She doesn’t even do “baba” or “dada”. Is this normal for 1 year old?
