Baby with a temper

Does anyone else have a baby with a temper?? My baby is very advanced… she started doing things that 6-7 month olds do around 2-3 months old. She started teething at the beginning of 3 months old.

When did your baby start walking?

My son is nearly 15 months and my pediatrician said if they’re not walking then it’s cause for worry. He takes maybe 5-6 steps then wants to crawl. Hes been doing that since 12m. Does anyone have some tips so I can help him out?

Is anyone else’s little one not yet walking? My little girl shows 0 interest (hates being held up by her hands to walk, just slumps down and crawls off!).

Baby keeps scratching face

5 month old keeps scratching or rubbing face. Her nails are trimmed but she somehow always manages to scratch herself. She's also rubbed her forehead so much the skin is really sore. I think she does this partly as a soothing mechanism. How do I get her to stop?

Anyone else fed up with people asking if their little one is walking yet?

I’m sure I’d probably ask the same thing, but it’s just annoying me lol. My little is showing no interest in walking. She’s a fast crawler and loves it. It can take 12-18 months for little one to walk so I’m not too concerned at the moment.

What is wrong with my baby? I’m sure this isn’t normal behaviour..

Genuinely struggling to cope with these meltdowns.. all this was because I changed her nappy. I’ve tried distraction, toys, singing, changing location, laying on a warm blanket, warming wipes..
