He's 5 and I have very little experience with children this age so I'm just trying to gauge what's normal 5 year old behaviour and what's maybe more of a concern. He's such a sweet, but sensitive boy but in the last 3 weeks there's been 3 incidents that in my opinion are a bit alarming but I'd love to know if this ...

Anybody have/had a 3.5yr old that can tell me wtaf is going on?! I heard 3 is a difficult age but I'm genuinely at the point where I'm screaming into pillows (when he's out of sight) and spending my evenings crying in bed. He goes from 0 to 100 in a split second. Cries, screams and gets angry at the smallest things....

Please no judgement but who else lets their 5 month old watch a bit of telly now and then when they’ve run out of things to do?

Help!! My 10 month old seems to be crying when strangers say hello or talk to him, it’s like he’s scared 😂 unsure if it’s a faze or can I do anything to help it happening

My 17 week old keeps trying to chew on her teething toys and rattles, but she doesn't have the coordination to get everything in her mouth and just starts screaming out in frustration. I don't know what to do as she doesn't like it when I try to help by guiding her 🥺 I tried the gummee glove as I thought that might…

So my 18 month old little boy doesn’t talk. He only says “mama” “dada” but He doesn’t say it when prompted, nor does he say anything else. He shakes his head SOMETIMES but not when he says no, because he doesn’t say no and hasn’t associated that action with the word. He has a cousin, who turned 1 in February and he ...

she growing up too fast 😂😭💕

My 1 year old keeps biting, no matter how many time I’ve said no to him he still does it how can I stop him? I never had this with my oldest 😩🤦🏽‍♀️

What does this mean. He gets so frustrated and he just flops and splashes around! He doesn’t army crawl but I know he wants to be on the move.

Anyone else’s little one going through major tantrums?? Honestly my 15 month old has become so fussy recently nothing I do is good enough. She’s just had a tantrum because we were reading a lift the flap book but because the first page didn’t have a flap she screamed 🫠

My baby is seven months, I am so worried because they don’t even want to see a spoon going near them while weaning or will not take milk in a bottle I was planning to back to work when they are almost 11 months But I am so worried Is there a light at the end of the tunnel?

My daughter is 2 (27 months ) and we still have her rear facing and recently my husband keeps talking about he wants to turn her to forward facing … I am still unsure on if we should do that my anxiety is just insane about it … I have googled about it especially for the state I live in an I am honestly confused beca...

Are anyone's babies crawling yet? We are a start of September baby so 7 months in a couple of weeks! He is breakdancing but not yet crawling 😂

How is everyone managing letting their toddlers walk whilst out and about? Mine is very clingy atm and always wants to be picked up at home so I thought I'd start letting him walk more when we're out. I saw a family walking with their toddler, the same age as mine out of nursery, he was happily walking next to them ...

Anyone’s baby learnt what gentle means yet? Or are we all getting hit in the face with toys/hands daily? 😂😅

My little boy came back from the childminder on Monday with this bite mark on his leg and a large graze/scrape on his back. We only noticed when changing his nappy once we were home and the childminder never mentioned anything at pickup. When questioned, she said she had no idea about it, that he’d given her no ca...

Having a boy first definitely set me up for higher expectations! My son was so chill, he didn’t need constant entertainment or cuddles… My daughter on the other hand is sooooo clingy, I can’t do anything without her wanting to be attached to my hip all day. I physically can’t do it though because she’s a heavy baby...

I noticed my girl has recently been hitting herself on the head with her hands. She usually does this when she is trying to fall asleep. Is this some kind of self soothing? It’s not even like gently patting her head. She literally is smacking herself on the head.

What are some games or things that I can do to help my newly 2 year old talk more? Any favorites? Any games you like to play? Give me allll the ideas. Thanks!!

My LO is almost 9 months old (born 6/30) and I noticed her friend who’s two weeks older is far more advanced than her. Her friend is crawling, has two teeth, and is standing. Other babies her age are pulling themselves up onto furniture when they stand. While she rocks back and forth and has now gone from sitting ...
