Anyone else? Daughter’s or son’s at 17 months reach the screaming and tantrum phase.

What are everyone’s opinions on reins, I’m in 2 minds for my 1 year old, she’s okay still to be in the pram and doesn’t kick off but, she does also like to walk and explore but loves to run off and act like she’s Usain Bolt, anyone have good or negative experiences with using them?

Hi I was wondering if anyone little one says breaks up words like this. For example he will say pur ple or aaa ple. I know it’s silly but is this normal speech. He has single words just broken up or slowly. If he also says a word he may repeat it more than once.

Alice is my 1st so I'm lacking experience and don't know whether I should be concerned about her behavior or if it's considered a "normal" stage for her age but I keep worrying about it. Firstly she absolutely cannot share, she's been in a nursery setting who promote sharing since 9m old but with kids her own age if...

Are your babies talking already? My 14 months old used to say over 15-20 words from 10-12 months, now I feel like she has ‘developed’ her own speech/ babble, and not saying real words anymore except for mama, papa and water.. she’s understands most things we say to her though. Has this happened to anyone?

Does your baby talk? My LO dosent really say anything apart from Dada. He babbles a lot and makes noises. He can make sounds if we try to encourage him but tlhat's about it. My daughter could say sooo many things when she was this age. Not sure if this is just a boy thing in that their speech develops a bit later or...

My 16 month old son is into everything and anything throwing tantrums when told no, or he wants it now and not in a min or so when I get a second. He can say 7-10 words but he isn’t talking and points to everything and makes a eh eh noise all the time even when I say what it is and try getting him to say it? Anyone ...

(i work mondays, wednesdays and thursdays so this routine would ideally be for the...

Please someone give me some hope. My son is 3 years and 4 months and is still yet to talk. He has been referred to speak and language and ENT (hearing test came back fine) but all a waiting game. His understanding is amazing and he is at age expected for anything except his communication. I am so worried for when he...
