What's with all this crying

Just here to say were in the same boat ☹️

Same! I’m actually glad to see you posted this because it’s constant meltdowns here. I stopped him from letting all of the water out of the dispenser today and you would have thought I beat him. It’s craziness.

Check and see if her back molars are coming in that’s what’s happening with my son right now he’s 14 months I heard the molars really hurt them my son also headbutts everything when he doesn’t get something 😭😭

It’s so hard when they can’t talk probably teething

Same here, I believe it’s due to my son teething. And he’s very attached to me more than usual

Likely in a leap with the back molars coming in. plus, they’re becoming aware of emotions so they’re working towards figuring them out. it’s just a phase, mama

Welcome to the toddler years. They’re learning how to regulate their emotions. Don’t get upset at her, try to help her with her emotions by validating her feelings “I know you feel *emotion* do you want a hug to feel better?” Or something like that

Yup sounds about right. Or as soon as I start to wash dishes she’s crying and pushing me away from the sink lol

So refreshing to see that it’s so normal and every toddler seems to be acting this way around this age 🥹😂

@Jennifer yes she has been overly clingy!!!

Lots of big emotions over here too. Part of it is just being a toddler and part of it is 4 molars in the last 2 weeks, and I think he has 2 canines about to come in. Lots of redirecting, music, and dance parties. I let messes happens. I choose my battles and remind myself constantly “consistent, corrective actions”

I’m checking for molars NOWWWWW😂😂😩😩 I for the life of me couldn’t understand why she started doing this I thought it was a bad habit picked up from my older daughter I’m furious..thanks for that advice

Almost same too. My girly has been whining a ton all day anytime. She just wants to be up but doesn’t want to be in carrier on my back but if I try to do anything other than play she gets jealous and comes and sits on my feet and whines. You’re def not alone here. It sucks but hopefully it’s a phase. My older kid grew out of it but it feels like it lasts forever

Their prefrontal cortex hasn't developed yet, so they are literally incapable of regulating emotions. They learn by coregulation, so watching you breathe, hug them, any way you calm down. 😊
