Community Posts, Tips & Support on Baby Milestones

Hi everyone. My little boy babbles lots, and I’ve occasionally heard him say mama, yeah & baba - but I wouldn’t say he has any proper words yet as those aren’t consistent. Any tips? Anyone in a similar position? HV not concerned as he’s under 2. Thanks x

I’m starting to absolutely hate going out in the car simply because if and when we get stuck in traffic my baby starts crying. Even if we’re at a red lights he starts to cry until the car starts moving again. I’ve tried playing songs that he likes, the happy song, I’ve even tried singing to him but nothing helps. He...

My daughter just turned one last Friday and the only words she knows is mama and dada she can’t say daddy but I’m bit worried seeing other children say lots more words than mine. Should I be worried? She can sometimes say hi but I don’t know if it just sounds like that, but it’s not meaning to if that makes sense. I...

Anyone else’s baby developed an attitude? My son has started getting mad and throwing little temper tantrums when he doesn’t get what he wants. He loves trying to get into everything he’s not supposed to and will get mad when I stop him.

My baby big time found her voice this week, and today screamed at the top of her lungs from 9 am to 8 pm straight (with just a couple nap breaks). Happy, sad, needing attention, hungry, excited, it doesn’t matter - she’s screeching like a velociraptor full volume. How do I teach her not to scream for attention? I ...

For a 3 year old what should their speech look like? My toddler says 800 words and can put 3-4 words together in a sentence. Should I be worried?

My almost 13 month old screams the house down anytime I change her diaper and I don’t know why and nothing calms her down not her favorite song or movie nothing. Please help

My 21 month old has been throwing crazy tantrums.. any tips on how to gently get through them?

My 2 year old son recently started throwing his toys at us. I’ve tried re-directing, telling him it hurts “boo boo”, rolling a ball back and forth with him, and now my husband puts him in time out for a short period of time. We are communicating with him as much as possible but it’s become a daily occurrence. I know...

Does everybody else's 3 year old ask them 5 million questions a day? It's 'why' everything over here and he doesn't accept any answer, most of the questioning ends up with me saying 'because it just is!' for him to turn around and say 'but why is it just is?' 🙈 I find the questions so triggering as it's just…

Is anyone else’s LO just not enjoying walks anymore? I had a really tough time when my LO was first born and really struggled even existing so the last thing I wanted was to get outside and move but the last month I’ve started to go on daily walks with my LO, he’s 5 months now and I really enjoy them and love gettin...

My daughter soon to be 2 year old, has learnt saying “No!” (Quite aggressively) a lot. She says it for everything and anything these days. This is now getting to me. I don’t know how to stop this. Please advise.

Okay... So don't get me wrong, this crawling, pulling yourself up and stuff is fun! I love watching my baby learning new skills but, this week she's hit her head maybe 20 times by face planting/falling and my back is really hurting from picking her out of pickles she finds herself in. I love her soooo much but some ...

Wondering if it’s just my little one but he does not like the car seat/ riding in the car. Whether it’s 5 min or 45 min. It’s a NO for him. He screamed and yells until we stop and grab him out. He can be freshly fed and changed and even with the paci for soothing/ toys etc. nothing has helped. It’s to the point I do...

My one year old isn’t saying many words so I wondered what everybody else’s are doing?

Little one is having tantrums now, sometimes only minor and sometimes quite big. When having the big tantrums, she will literally throw herself around the floor, head bang, pull her hair, scratch the walls, scream and cry and it’s honestly heart breaking! If I try to hold her and cuddle her she just pushes off me, ...

Is there a way to get my little one to click? 😂 Because she's doing a lot of parachuting ill drop a video on the comments. But she's been doing this for weeks and she's getting so frustrated with herself, she's kicking on her feet so she's moving forward but yeah lol 🤣

My LO has started biting and hitting… it’s not when he gets cross or angry. It’s almost like a game and he finds it funny. When I’ve googled it most of the help is around toddlers getting angry and how to help but how do we stop this when it’s not done from anger. He even did it to another child at a soft play centr...

Any one else's little ones just keep saying ow ow (ouch) all the time? I can literally pick him up or touch him and he says ouch is this a phase?
