So my boy is still not crawling, should I be getting concerned? He so clearly wants to move, but doesn't know how to and does try and get on to his knees from his tummy but hasn't come close to being successful yet. He's been sitting up since about 5 months, has been rolling since 6 months. I will say when I put h...

Hello! I am a mummy of an 2.5 year old toddler and walking on eggshells not to cause a meltdown 😩. Apart from the meltdowns ( to be fair any toddler could have those), he stimms quite a lot (either flapping his hands or running up and down and do sideglancing), he has high tolerance into pain, he tends to run away…

Are your little ones crawling? Mine is 10m next week and genuinely has no interest in crawling? Hates tummy time. I’m worried.

How would everyone describe their baby's temperament in general (excluding odd blips and anomalies) and the way they were delivered? Have your babies been overall happy/calm or have they been irritable/cranky from the beginning? Are there any who have gone from one to another or is a baby's temperament set in stone ...

Can your child walk and talk? My daughter can stand up and hold on to things and walk whilst holding on but can't walk on her own, she also hasn't said any words yet. It just makes me feel like a bad parent that she's not hitting the milestones

My baby out of the blue yesterday started hiding his face behind his top, then popping back up looking excited! Now he won’t stop playing peekaboo with us and loves covering his face and reappearing ☺️

My little boy hits when he gets frustrated and that’s occasionally at me and his daddy or his friends 🥺 It’s making me so anxious and not wanting to take him out as I’m so worried that he will hurt someone. Does anybody else have the same issue?

Have a baby girl who is desperate to crawl, but she gets in position then her legs get stuck! I uncross them but then she just falls on floor! Any tips to encourage? She’s getting sooo frustrated!

I just found out and thought it was so interesting so I wanted to share. Pathways in babies brains are still developing after birth and everytime you do affects them. When you comfort a baby it strengthens the pathway of soothing and helps it become permanent. There's no set time for how long this could take as all ...

I only know it is the ABCs, because 1. She loves the song and 2. She sings the beginning somewhat in tune 🤣

Does anyone else get frustrated when their partners take your baby off you rather than asking? My baby’s a week old and theirs just so many things getting to me

Does say wow mama dada babbles. What shall I do

hi new mom here, my son is almost 11 months. he crawls in all forms, and here recently has been showing instead in trying to pull up on things but just can’t quite figure it out. how do i help him?

Anyone else's do this 24/7 instead of crawling?🤦🏼‍♀️😂 He's constantly lifting up onto his feet as if he wants to stand and he's not even learned to crawl on all 4s yet (still army crawling)🤦🏼‍♀️😂

Anyone else’s 14 month old keep banging their head on stuff? She can be sat in her highchair and she’ll start banging her head on the head rest. Is this a sign of autism? Or normal behaviour?

My little one has just turned 25 months old and is barely talking says a few single words but that’s it. He has his 2 year check coming up in April and will mention it then But I’m worried is there any activities or anything I can do with him to develop his speech. Many thanks for any advice x

How do you discipline a 3yr old who thinks it's funny and just laughs in your face while your telling them off.

For the past week now, my baby has started slapping me. Is this normal? How do I get it to stop? When she does it I say no hitting or stop with a ‘stern’ face although in response she sometimes looks at me to assess me and smiles and sometimes repeats it. I don’t want her doing this in nursery

LO still isn’t walking so I have run out of ideas of things to do with her outside of the house, other than softplay! She’s starting to really not enjoy being in the buggy for long, as I think she wants to be walking but she can’t yet. I find myself always thinking it will be much easier when she can walk so we can ...

Our downstairs neighbor keeps getting upset because my daughter loves to jump around and run (you know normal kid things). Is anyone else in the same situation or can give me advice?
