So my little one will respond to his name (unless he is watching miss Rachel 🤣) but sometimes if I’m talking to him he doesn’t look up he just carries on with the toys he is playing with is this normal

My son has gotten slowly more upset with age! He used to be such a contented baby, and over the last 4 weeks has slowly gotten more and more upset. He’s 13 weeks now, and has cried for about 6 hours today. I try and take him to baby groups, and see all the other mums smiling and interacting with their child, meanwhi...

My baby got bitten at nursery - twice.. the nursery explained what happened but I think at the time I was in shock and didn’t really know what to say, I feel so upset and feel like it’s my fault for going back to work and him having to be there, I feel awful. You can see the bite marks too it makes me really sad to ...

I’m finding interacting with my gorgeous boy a bit like I’m talking on eggshells at the moment? And it’s making me not enjoy it sometimes which I really want to change Sometimes he just goes mad and throws and waves his arms around often hitting me in the face. He is rough with our little dog and it makes me so angr...

My Baby girl keep rolling over and crawling backwards and love to scream does anyone else have this issue

I’m due to go to Thursford Christmas show tomorrow and it has just dawned on me that the music may be loud. Will this be bad for my baby?

My daughter recently started bringing objects really close to her face or even sometimes banging her head to get really close to an object. It’s starting to worry me a bit, do anyone else’s babies do this?

Sorry for the long post. Here’s what my 20 mo’s like: -He hasn’t done any of the common gestures, but he does grab someone’s hand toward what he can’t reach or something he knows he’s not allowed to touch. -He does babble a lot and we think that some are word-like. -He just recently started responding to his name, h...

My son is 21 months old and we had our second evaluation yesterday where he scored a 9 high risk on the M-CHAT. Although he hadn’t napped and was acting much different at the appointment than usual. He had showed some signs and I’ve had a few people ask me if he’s on the spectrum. I don’t have much experience with t...

Also, he decreased mimicking a lot. My son is meeting all other milestones normally or even ahead of time, but he is not meeting these. Is it a cause for concern? Waving and mimicking were great until he started walking, since then, being on the move is all he cares about.

For the past couple of days my little one who is 10 months on Saturday, has become really grouchy. He’s gone from being an independent little boy to crying whenever I put him down. However he went to nursery for a settling in session today and was apparently a little angel and no crying ! He is only content climbing...

In the last week my little girl has learnt the word “fuck”. She stayed with my mum for one day and now this 🤦🏼‍♀️ does anyone know how I should go about this . I have tried telling her off but then she thinks it’s funny and starts saying it more. I have tried ignoring it and she will just start saying it louder. I…

My 1st born almost 1.5yrs has his first steps too looking into autism on December 11th any tips or advice? On another note, how do you discipline your autistic child and is it effective? My son keeps having violent outbursts not only to himself (head butting walls floors n furniture) but to me (scratching pinching ...

A few examples: Him: "Daddy, yogurt please?" Daddy: "we don't have anymore, sorry" Him: "Go away Daddy!" ------- Me: "It's bedtime" Him: "No mommy!" Me: "Yes, let's go" Him: "No mommy!" --------- At bedtime Me: daddy is going to read you a story tonight Him: No! Mommy stay. Daddy go away. ----- I don't know...

Has anyone else’s LO had there 2 year check? Anyone experiencing there LO just saying a couple of words and not sentences?

I know they’re still very young and the center of their own universe but I’m starting to see my son acts very different from others. Toddler classes he’s off in the corner or playing around tables and chairs. Others seem happy to sit on their parents knee shaking rattles clapping but mines toddling off alone. Should...

I have no idea where my toddler has got this from but every time I ask for a kiss she laughs and tries to smack me in the face and when I tell her no it’s naughty she just laughs like I’ve said something funny and continues to try smack me and I keep telling her no but she doesn’t understand and still keeps laughing...

LB pulls to stand, cruises and is trying to stand without holding anything and would love to be walking. Seems to be so accident prone!!! Is also a 2nd child if that means anything lol but I hate how much he seems to be getting hurt compared to when my eldest was this age 😭

Has anyone else’s LO giggled at like random moments. My LG giggles usually when she’s sleeping. It scared me at first bcus I didn’t think that 1month olds could possibly giggle. Now she’s 2 months and she does it a little more louder lol. I wonder what she’s dreaming ? Most likely of me lol

I'm 34 weeks and my son has been doing this alot lately 😂 is it a butt? A knee? I have no idea 😅😂 I know he's head down because I feel his little hands and arms in my hips. Any guesses? Does your love bug do this to?
