How am I supposed to cook, or eat, or shower, or wash up? How do you do those things if you have a 1 year old screaming at your feet. I just don't do the things 🤷🏻‍♀️

When u call ur baby does she look at u?

Hello! FTM to a 15 month old, my son has hit all his developmental milestones and babbles almost constantly, he can say things like mamma and dadda but that's about it, should I be worried?

Does anyone know what this noise is? I took her to the drs a while back for a blocked nose and the last couple of days she is randomly doing this it’s got me worried?

Sorry for a bit of a rant but I’ve been so upset all afternoon about this and keep crying (which is so silly but also hormones because I’m expecting again). My little boy had glue ear and has hearing loss. His speech is delayed. He’s saying more words but it’s single words and their fairly basic, not sentences, and ...

Anyone else’s 8 month old doing this?

10 weeks old and just screams from 8-12 every night 😩 anyone else? Nothing I do can console him, essentially just have to wait until he wears himself out. It’s sooo hard. The constant screaming literally makes me feel dead inside 💀 exhausted! Does this stage just pass at some point? I just don’t know what to…

Hey ladies My 2.5 year old is just playing up biting, hitting etc. I’ve tried telling him no, calmly.. to explain what is ok and what isn’t, time out in naughty corner. Nothing seems to improve his behaviour at the moment, it doesn’t work. Any tips on what to do? I’m struggling x

My 13 month old has started screaming as loud as he can any time he doesn't get what he wants. How do I teach him to react in another way?

Is anyone else’s toddler asking CONSTANT questions? “Mama, why” “Mama what are you doing?” “Mama what is that?” “Mama what is on your shirt?” Literally everything and she’ll ask over and over and over even if I give her an answer.. how are we dealing with this? Do we answer every time? And how do I not lose my patie...

Just curious if anyone was able to get a referral to see a speech specialist even though your child does know a few words? My son knows a handful of words but we still sometimes struggle with communication which leads to tantrums. I’m wondering if we should see a speech specialist to see if there will be improvemen...

Hey all! Are you little ones starting a new feisty type behavior all of a sudden?? The mornings she’s great and then afternoon/evenings, she’s been acting very frustrated and throwing little tantrums. Only thing that I can attribute it to is that she’s started walking with holding just one hand of mine and maybe she...

How many of your littles have words and gestures? Our pediatrician made a huge deal about of my son’s lack of mimicking waving/pointing. We have 2 words and 1 gesture!

My mil anytime she seems my son always shows him lots of love and affection. I have no issue with her showing him love but the affection sometimes goes way overboard. One or 2 kisses on the cheek is ok but 10 or more from grandma is a bit too much. Unfortunately my husband never notices and I am the one who has to...

My 3 year old son has a problem with putting everything in his mouth or chewing on things. Has anyone dealt with this, and if so, do you have any advice on how I can curve this habit. Also, could him being autistic have anything to do with this?

Anyone else who already has kids finding your patience is so limited and the slightest inconveniences or annoyances (behaviour) from your kids sends you into a total rage? Upto my eyeballs with a stressed feeling and it’s horrible I hate being like this and feel bad for them being around me when I’m like that and al...

My baby keeps saying “yeah” all the time! Not sure if he is intentionally saying it though.

Just wondering if anyone else can relate. My son is 2.5 years old he only says a few words . He had his health check and they said communication emerging in the red book. I feel sad today because I took him to a stay and play, there are younger children that seem miles ahead. Playing together, I feel like I’ve fail...

So feel really bad that my son isn't stringing any sentences together at all, I've just tried and sat down with him doing a puzzle with farm animals trying to get him involved and getting him to name me the animals but when the puzzle was coming together and starting to become a flat surface he's got distracted by h...
