Baby screaming her head off when I change her nappy or clothes !

My little girl is otherwise so happy & chilled but as soon as I go to change her out of her clothes or nappy or even to put a bib on her sometimes she kicks off and screams and cry’s till it’s done. It makes me sad to see her get so upset also makes me dread night routine because I know she will scream cry the whole...

9 month old not really babbling

My 9 month old has babbled in the past with sounds like dadada but he seems to have stopped and now just makes noises and hasn’t done it for a few weeks. Should I be worried? He just seems to make noises and squeals. People are telling me he should be babbling more and he’s not.

Toddler chaos - testing boundaries 😫

Tell me I’m not the only one with a toddler testing boundaries 👀😫!?!? My 2 year old (26.5 months) is really testing my patience and ability to stay calm. She will beg for the tv on and we ask her what she wants and the second we put it on she says no over and over again. Plus no is also her favourite word atm. She…

Cuteness overload

I always call my toddler "sweet boy", especially when greeting him. I noticed yesterday and today every time he sees someone he's started saying "hi seet bo" 😂 Nobody knows what he's saying except me atm and it's too cute. He was going round Asda earlier calling everyone 'sweet boy' 🤣

Potential Autism Sign?

Online information makes it so hard to not worry about everything with your babies. I've noticed my little one does this, I think it's mainly when she gets excited but does this look like stimming to anyone? She doesn't show any other signs, she responds to her name, great eye contact etc.

High pitched squealing

My LO is 6.5 months and has been squealing a lot since last two days. Not sure if this is normal at this stage as he use to squeal similarly when he was 3 months

8 months old

Do babies at eight month old start throwing tantrums or crying for different reasons. My little one usually never cries unless she has a diaper change food or burp but she seems to be crying a lot more. She does have one tooth coming out because it just be her teething.

Not standing independently yet?

My son is 12 months, will be 13 on the 27th and he’s not standing independently yet? He cruises round the room all day long and stands holding on with one hand or leaning against something but won’t stand independently. He uses his walker all the time too. I think it’s more a case of lacking balance than strength. ...

What counts as a conversation?

My son is in early intervention and being assessed for autism. He communicates using echolalia and repeating single words or putting our hand on what he wants. His 3 year old milestone questionnaire asks if he can "talk with you in conversation using at least two back-and-forth exchanges". We can do several back a...

How do you get your toddler to listen to you ?

My toddler completely ignores me when I tell her to stop doing something or just give her an instruction, she will look at me and smile or just say no and continue. It’s becoming super frustrating and I need some advice please.

Tantrums

For the past two weeks my little girl has had explosive tantrums. Sometimes we can work out what it’s about/she will tell us, other times it’s at bedtime, and other times completely random. They’re so so bad - she’s screaming, kicking, crying for up to 45 mins. We’ve got a few queries over whether she’s neurodiver...

Anyone else's 14 month old just moan and cry all the time?!

It's not even like he's crying with tears, just like shout crying and moaning, endlessly. Nothing seems to help really. I'm with him all day everyday, take him out to the park every day, has lots of toys to play with, etc. He's not sick frequently as he's not in nursery. His newer teeth are pretty much through. I ju...
