Nothing seems physically wrong with her. She has only just started doing this the past couple of weeks. Tried all the usual things - diaper, food, bath, skin2skin, etc…Happens in the evening like clockwork and nothing seems to calm her. Thought witching hour is more in the first few weeks, not starting at almost 3 m...

Mine 13 months and has been put on a list as he’s showing signs and I’m autistic myself. They said it could take years anyway.

How much did your little one talk around 2 years old? My son says a few basic words but not much. Momma, daddy, grandma, yes, no, welcome, thank you, cracker, uh oh, meow

Anyone else’s toddler turn into an absolute monster around 4-5pm? I feel like my son just starts breaking down around this time and starts having random tantrums. Any advice?

Hi everyone, my LB has just turned 9 months (7 months corrected). For months now I’ve noticed that he constantly twirls his wrists/hands and ankles. It kind of looks like he’s revving a motorbike lol. As the weeks go on I feel like he’s doing it more and more. It’s mostly when he’s laying on his back or in his swing...

Does anyone else have a toddler and heavily pregnant? I’m nearly 37 weeks and measuring big and my toddler is really outdoorsy, doesn’t like to stay in much. My question is, how are keeping your toddlers entertained? I feel like I’m depending on television way more than I usually would and I have major mum guilt but...

Anyone else’s 18 month old just talking up a storm? Seems like in just the last couple weeks mine is saying ALL kinds of things, singing songs, animal noise’s and learning to say “no”

My LB is still not crawling but he gets on all 4s and rocks back and forth. He moves his legs but not his arms. I’m seeing all these other babies younger than him crawling and It’s making me feel like a shit mum. Like I’m doing something wrong. He’s a proper chatter box and loves to jump while he’s balancing with me...

Does your toddler come home from nursery and literally just kick off at absolutely everything?? She dropped her blanket on the floor whilst in the car so was crying over that I couldn’t even try to explain that I was driving and couldn’t reach it for her. She was kicking her feet about so much her shoe fell off so w...

Anyone else’s baby (7 months) look at you/someone and tilt their head? My LG has just started, she’ll look, tilt her head and then smile. It’s super cute but I’ve not noticed other babies do it.

Any Moms know any speech therapy? That I can take my one year old to ?

Drop offs are still not fun, he cries every time. He only goes 2 days a week but I feel like most of the time when I check the camera he is crying and just seems to not be having a good time and it makes me sad for him. When will he get used to being there?

Anyone’s baby not super cuddly? He’s smiling and laughing and loves interacting but prefers to do it led down next to me rather than being held. He’s happy being held facing away from me when watching tele or facing me when being carried around, but doesn’t seem to enjoy being cuddled chest to chest. He used to love...

The last week my son has been spitting...and I don't know how to redirect him. It's obvious he doesn't know what "no" means. He likes to stick his tongue out, and blow so spit goes flying ...all over me. It's REALLY starting to piss me off. Someone help me. What should I say to redirect him before I lose my shit?!

I know everyone always is like "oh this is just a stage" but I don't know ...everything he does is just violent. Like even if he's playing it has to turn violent. He runs by people and just slaps them. Its constant violence. He's typically not violent to his younger sibling but even today he was waving a toy at him ...

Not my first child, but my first biter 🤦 anyone have any tips to stop this? 8/10 times he doesn't succeed as we remove ourselves before he gets the bite. We've tried removing ourselves, telling him no biting as we do it. Walking away and offering a teething toy, or any toy instead. Nothing seems to be working. He…

Just recently he started doing this and I’m not sure if it’s normal? He inhales really sharply and usually it’s when he’s playing/interacting. But it’s becoming constant

Please help. I'm losing hope. What type of therapy works best for children who are not talking at all, like not saying a single word? My son is 29 months old. He does gestures (pointing, waving sometimes etc) and comprehends for the most part but not interested in saying a word. He is so smart - knows all his number...

My 19 month old wants no one but me not even his dad, every time his dad comes near him he screams cries and runs to me, I get in the shower he freaks out.. 95% of the day he’s crying if I’m not holding him or playing with him… any ideas of what’s going on?

Any other mums really struggling with Lo’s tantrums. My baby girl is 13 months and she has really bad tantrums, by this i mean throwing herself back with so much force and winging meaning she bangs her head. It can be over the littles things, taking things off her, moving her out the room, dress her ect. Any tips a...
