Wow 😳

My 3 year old has been going through phases of being REALLY difficult. He’s going through one at the moment and it’s just horrendous. -Major tantrums! -Not listening to a word we say -Doing odd / out of character things -Very difficult at bedtime, stalling sooo much -Taking his brother’s dummies even though he gave his up perfectly fine even after his brother was born! - being fussy with food! -hitting, kicking, biting, throwing toys at the wall when he’s having a tantrum! - saying he wants to ‘break my bones’ 😟 no idea where he’s getting all this from! But I’ve also noticed he’s regressed in his speech too, more stuttering and getting his words all mixed up. I don’t know if this is a cause for concern? Or if it’s a developmental thing? 😩 Please tell me I’m not alone in this?

I know how you feel! My big boys behaviour has been horrendous since his little brother was born. All the same things that you’ve said above. He’s always has a speech delay tho so I can’t comment on the regressed speech as we’ve always struggled to understand what he’s saying anyway 🙈 I’m not sure if that’s linked to increased tantrums? But we’ve definitely seen the increase in tantrums and difficulties at bedtime since his little bro arrived. I’m just waiting it out tbh 🥲 He definitely behaves better when we’ve been out the house doing things all day so he doesn’t get bored and just trying to spend as much one on one time with him as possible. The days where I’m not as present or struggling mentally myself I really notice a dip in his behaviour. Hang in their mumma! We’ve got this 💪🏻

How much gap between elder & younger one ?

@Preeti when my little one was born my March 2021 baby was 2y 10 months. Now baby is 9 months xx
