At baby classes I feel like there’s quite a big difference between my LO and other babies her age (7m). She is very chilled and quiet, like she sits there just taking it all in, other babies are more vocal, screeching and constantly rolling about and trying to play etc, my girl is more vocal at home and wants to p...

My 2 year old son is absolutely obsessed with itsy bitsy spider, Spider-Man and spiders in general. It’s been this way for about 3/4 months. It’s been two days of me limiting how much we listen to/ sing the song and he’s doing much better with that than the previous times I’ve tried to cut back. However, now his toy...

She is just a ball of giggles and sunshine one day, followed by 3 days of being unpredictable and unhinged... and then sweet and calm again for a few days. On the unpredictable and unhinged days, she cries or screams no matter how you interact with her, be that telling her "no" when she throws toys or plays too roug...

Yall. I’m SO TIRED of repeating myself. But maybe she just actually can’t hear me?

How often do we need to do this? I want to buy my LB some new shoes but my mum says i need to get his feet measured properly every time and not to just buy any shoes as LB has wide feet

4 month old has started screaming every time he gets put into his car seat. It’s awful screaming, like red in the face and choking himself so it’s horrible for me to see. Is there any tips on helping this? He never used to do this, a little grumble initially but quickly got over it, but this is a whole other level

Does anyone else feel really touched out? My 1 y old is so clingy and I find it so overwhelming having her constantly attached to me. I love her so much, but I am constantly feeling like I can’t breath as she is clinging to me.

My LO is constantly making this noise, like an attempt at raspberry's? But it's now the only noise he'll make, if we talk to him this is how he responds🤣. I'm assuming it's normal? Haha Anyone else??

Hey everyone. My 2 and a half year old used to be SO good at sharing, but recently a lot of kids kept snatching off him and he's suddenly switched, understandable tbh. He now keeps shouting "it's mine" and it's kinda grinding on me. How can I stop him saying this? We're telling him to take turns which he does eventu...

Anybody else MIL ignore what you ask? My baby is 7 weeks old, and my MIL kissed her. I'm now super anxious about RSV and other things as she's completely unvaccinated. My partner, whose I've never had any issues with just keeps saying, "she'll be fine" and didn't say anything. I'm so upset

Has anyone else’s toddler just forgotten how to listen? 🫠🫠😭😭

Should I be worried my son isn't speaking in sentences. He does say some words and he will repeat words but if I ask him to say two words together like "mummy please, I love you, more please" he will only repeat one word These are the only phrases he says " all done, no way , oh no, shut up" He's always been adva...

Anyone’s baby still not walking yet? Mine cruising round the furniture but will not take a step and hasn’t really stood without holding anything yet is this normal?

I’m at a loss and I have no clue what to do. My son is 13 months old and when he gets frustrated he just attacks he starts hitting or biting or even pulling hair and we tell him no and that it’s not ok. He is very emphatic so as soon as anyone says the word no or ow he starts crying. He will give hugs and then do it...

4 week old only seems to be happy when on the boob or with a dummy in his mouth ☹️☹️ why won’t he just lay happy?

Seems like my girls gearbox is set only to reverse 😂 Trying everything to encourage her to crawl forwards but nothing is working. Anyone else experiencing this? What can I do?

My little boy crawled for the first time last night, and now he won’t stop, honestly it felt like such a proud mom moment. He was born the 29th of July, and I’ve seen other babies crawling for ages and he’s finally done it

4 year old doesn’t want to learn how to ride a bike, likes rolling with feet on ground instead. Doesn’t like putting on certain clothes (long, sleeves, new fur vest given as a gift, puffy jacket but eventually puts it on etc) Doesn’t like getting hands “dirty” with paint, water on hands or arms at times unless ...

Is anyone else's toddler not talking much? My little boy turned 2 on 3rd Feb and I'm a sahm and some days I just feel like I've failed him because he's not talking as much as others his age or even younger 😭 He says things like i love you, where are you, lie down, throw, stretch, dog, duck etc and is constantly…

My toddler is still putting everything in her mouth and she tends to chew on her fingers a lot. Is this normal at this age or should they have outgrown this by now? She’s exhibiting some concerning behaviours like shrugging her shoulders becoming irritable and sleepy during the day. She’s not sleeping through the ni...
