Not walking at 15 months

Hi my baby isn’t walking yet. We’ve tried everything and the health visitor says if she’s not walking by 18 months she’ll need to refer her for physio. Anyone else’s baby refusing to walk? Or heard of babies like this that walked fine later?

How many words should he be saying?

I'm really concerned my little one doesn't speak. If he wants something, he says nana. He has always had trouble with babbling, and I've noticed he doesn't close his lips for sounds like Mama. Should I raise my concerns? Thanks in advance for any advice

Husbands

I keep telling my husband that our baby might be getting over stimulated and that it could be why she's so cranky all the time and not to furiously whistle and clap at her. But so far he hasn't listened. We had a babysitter come over yesterday to help me out so I could do some things around the house at the same tim...

Do your babies recognize you yet?

As in, can they tell the difference when you’re the ones holding them vs other people? Do they recognize your faces when they see you? I feel like my daughter can clearly see when I walk into a room or when I speak. She would start crying on whoever’s holding her until I pick her up.

He doesn’t care if we tell him no

Ok so maybe this is a part of having a one year old but he doesn’t listen. Like at all… he’s such a sweet baby and he’s usually pretty easy going but he laughs at us if we tell him no. I’m also a teacher and I have a pretty good “teacher voice” so it’s not like I’m not being firm. I just want him to get that we’re n...

Little girl knows whole alphabet

Not sure if this is normal but my little girl recognises the entire alphabet, she can sing it in order but also identify letters in no particular order. She knows most colours and numbers. I’m mind blown because it’s come out of nowhere. Does anyone else have a smarty pants? Or is this normal for the age range?

Headset recommendations!!

Hey ladies I need help! Long story short daycare is not working so I’ve made the tough decision to be a SAHM+WFH Mama. I have a headset that I thought was noise suppressing but I was horrified to learn today that they (work) had heard my baby crying all week. I am a client manager and have lots of meetings. I need t...

Why does my lo refuse to say mumma

My lo is refusing to say mumma but says dadda even though he’s never been in my son’s life. When I try get him to say mumma he chooses to say dadda. My son is smart and knows how to say some words.
