Community Posts, Tips & Support on Baby Milestones

My little one is a super active boy, loves walking and climbing. But his comms isn’t coming along as quickly. He’s still to say his first intentional word (he forever babbles). He knows some instructions but just doesn’t seem in a rush to speak. We read and sing and I encourage him a lot and I don’t want to put unn...

Every time I try to get my 18 month old to use crayons and color he always ends up having a tantrum Cuz he takes off with the crayon and tries to eat it and of course I stop him. He doesn’t sit still long enough to enjoy it. He does a few scribbles but that’s it. Is this normal for his age?

My baby just turned 9 months and is just sitting and rolling but not pulling himself or crawling, doctor send us to therapy. Any moms going tru the same. 😫

My boy has just learnt how to “sing” we have been hearing the blippi songs on repeat for the last couple days and it’s hilarious and cute. And by sing I mean screaming the words like “fiiiiiiirrrreeeee truuuuuuuck” 😂🥹

Are you still using your changing table? My little boy is so active now I think it might be time to change him and get him dressed on floor, feels like a big milestone though 🥲

Anyone else's 2 year old love lining up things, in particular cars? I know it can be a developmental phase however he also gets really angry if one is moved by us. Should i be worried?

We just moved and my sweet little 22 month old is suddenly a little menace who whines for no apparent reason and only wants his dad. Has anyone else had a move change their toddler’s behavior? How long did it last?

Like when you say, “where is your head?”Or do they point to things they want like food or anything?

It's not all the time, mostly when he's sleeping. His eyes don't roll back or anything it starts in his feet, goes through legs up the torso, and he pops his arms up, then readjust himself, then falls back to sleep. When he's awake, he stares off into space, and he ¿vibrates? a bit more, than he's back to focusing o...

My baby absolutely hates getting dressed and having things pulled over her head. Is that normal for this stage? They’re like proper tantrums!

Is anyone else’s LO started hitting we’ve turned 16months and they’ve started hitting at nursery and when told no they do it again. Anyone got any tips on how to manage this, they just find it funny instead of realising it’s bad! 😭

Hi, My 13 month old has been screaming when I say no, running towards me when I say no & also not listening at all when I’m saying no when he’s throwing things or trying to redirect him from something he shouldn’t be touching etc. He’s started to bite me too and I know this could just be teething. He constantly wan...

My baby took 1-2 steps independently but she’s not improving or doing much walking. She doesn’t practice much either. Is it normal? What can I do to help her?

My baby is 12 and half months old and sometimes I call his name and he doesn’t look at me. He is walking, babbles (mama, papa, na na na, dra dra dra), if I say “hello?” pretending I am on the phone he puts his hand in his ear. If I ask for him to give me a toy he gives in my hand I cannot see anything that worr...

I've been told not to get caught up on when babies reach their milestones but my little one seems to be doing things extra early. She's been able to roll over since 3 days old, support her own head when I'm lifting her from 7/8 days and the first time we attempted tummy time at 14 days she lifted her head and looked...

Is anyone else’s 18 month old still not walking?

My one year old (almost 2) is hitting and throwing stuff at dad and I when she gets upset. We’ve tried positive reinforcement, simply telling her “no hitting”, redirected her, tried calming her down, 1-2 minute time outs. But none of it helps or seems to work for her. Any advice or solutions?

My baby is 8 months and he’s not crawling at all. He’s shown some signs of like “going to” but doesn’t crawl. we do tummy time despite him hating it- should I be worried if he’s not crawling ??

How is everyone managing tantrums? My little one has started crying and lying on the floor

Is anyone’s else little going through a hitting phase?! He will hit us even when he’s not mad, just trying to get a reaction. And I know part of it is when he’s trying to point and ask for something but we’re not understanding what it is he wants so he will hit. We tell him “no, we don’t hit, we use gentle hands” an...
