Walking

My daughter’s 14 months old and not walking or standing on her own. She’ll walk holding my hands and that’s it, would much rather crawl or waddle on her knees. Should I be worried? I see others younger or around the same age walking

My daughter cries when I sing

So as the post says, my 2 and a half year old daughter cries when I sing, she’s fine with nursery rhymes etc but when I sing properly she cries and gets really upset. I’m very good at singing so it can’t be because it sounds awful so I don’t understand why she hates it so much. I’m just wondering if I’m doing someth...

Finally

I finally caught her doing it. I would just randomly see her sitting and wouldn’t see the process of it.

My 3yro son 🫠

Last night we had a new babysitter watch our kids-- 5 & 3. As we were all sitting on the couch hearing how their night went, my lovely son turns to me and asks, in front of her, "Mom, why does she have small boobs?" (I have implants so clearly he now notices boob size if they look different than mine?…

Anyone else’s baby always bumping their head?

My little boy is climbing everything and crawling everywhere so he’s always bashing his head. I hate it when he’s got a bruise especially on his head 😫

Help

How are we all coping with our 8 month olds? Bc I’m struggling🫠 my little girl just seems frustrated all the time, can’t seem to keep her entertained for longer than a minute. Unsure if it’s teething, separation anxiety, or just general fussiness. Anyone had the same?

Help!

Girls I need some advice/ someone to talk to my little girl turn 3 months old yesterday but I would say for the past month she prefers the bouncer over me cuddling her ( which I know there’s a lot more to do in the bouncer) but even if I do books/activities with her she won’t participate unless she’s sat up with a b...

Bookworm

I bought some books for my LO when she was 1, just because I thought they’d be cute—haha. I didn’t grow up in a reading household (not even bedtime stories!), but now at 2, she’s obsessed with books. She’d rather read than play with toys! I haven’t done anything special to encourage it, so now I’m wondering— Is thi...

Toddler speech delay- should I be worried?

My son will be 2 next month and he only has a handful of words, including no, me, key, knee, tea, poo, moon and not much else to be honest. He maybe has 15 words maximum? He is healthy and otherwise hitting normal milestones. He is clearly very clever and he has a huge vocabulary in terms of what he understands but ...

Lack of gross motor skills
