My little one is still not walking. She has been standing up without holding onto anything for months but yet still no steps. Just wondering how many others are in the same boat?

Hi, 29+2 weeks here. My son just kicked me so hard that I heard a noise that sounded like a “splat” or maybe it was more of like a “ticking” sound. Either way I’m a little nervous and wanted to know if anyone has experienced this?

With how Elon was there with his toddler and the things the toddler was saying…and how Trump was just like a little kid sitting quietly at his desk while his boss spoke… the way that Musk spoke so much more than Trump. He wasn’t in dress code. Like this is so telling…

What are you reading to your babies?

Hi all, First time mum here, so not sure if I’m massively overthinking or my concerns are actually correct…. My LO is 19 months and I’ve had concerns over his development for a few months now. My main concerns are: - No name recall. - Will run off at soft play ect and doesn’t look for me. - on two separate...

Hey moms, are your little ones babbling sounds similar to ‘ma-ma’ and ‘da-da’ yet? My little one is 6 months old and babbles quite a bit, but he seems to be stuck on certain sound groups. I haven’t heard him say anything resembling ‘ma’ or ‘da’ yet, even though I’m repeating to him words like mama and dada quite a lot.

Struggling with my boys behavior, he is constantly climbing, attempting to touch potential dangerous objects in the kitchen, climbing out of his car seat on all car journeys making driving to nursery difficult, then difficult to get him into his car seat, running away when outside, very repetitive with his routines ...

So part of my family is bilingual and part is not. My son (15 1/2 months, only child) doesnt say a lot. He says Mom in our second language but not english. He says da da. Recently i have had older members compare my child to my brothers who is 3 months younger and has an older sibling, also is saying more words. The...

My 11 month old is approaching his first birthday. He has been using his walkers to push and walk but he is cry’s and is supper fussy. Is this normal? Is he uncomfortable? We can talk to him and move around to keep him going and he giggles for a second but is crying for the most part?

When should this be a concern? My boy has been stammering at the start of his sentences for a few months now, once he gets going he’s fine and his speech is very good. For example he might say ‘my my my my my foot hurts’ I know it can be quite common at this age but how long do you let it go on before it’s not j...

Hey, I’ve got a little girl who’s turning 1 on March 1st- actually leap year baby🎀 She’s not fully crawling yet, will sit and go into crawling position and lay on her front and then sit up. She rolls to get to places she wants to go. Anyone else going through this stage🤣

I know it's obviously completely normal for a 3 year old to chat away. But anybody else finding it to be CONSTANT and non stop? It's the back chat that comes with it too?! Example 1. Freddie knows I can log into his nursery app to check on his day. So when I asked him the other day 'what did you have to eat today?' ...

My little one is really hard work recently 😩 I feel like he cries and gets frustrated from the minute I’m home from work until the minute he goes to bed. He’s pointing to things but then throwing them instantly when we pass them to him, throwing food then crying, really destructive and breaking and throwing…

Most days when I pick my girl up from nursery I’m told she has tried to hit someone or bite or push etc. When it happens, they explain to her it’s not okay and talk to her about it but it’s getting to a point where it’s now a daily occurrence. They’ve brought her into the office before after a bad bite and she jus...

My 3 year old little boy has a tendency to be rather naughty and can be very nasty to his 2 year old brother. He can be very aggressive towards him and throws things, hits, kicks, drags him around by his top etc. We're not sure where he's seen any of that behaviour before and nursery are adamant he is not picking it...

Hi mamas, my 2 year old walks on tiptoes and even in shoes too. What could this possibly mean? When she just started walking she would do the same thing and the doctor told us not to worry about it. She said all kids do this when they’re just learning to walk. But it’s been a year now and she does it sometimes. We h...

My son has zero words. I am somewhat worried tbh. I try to look at his other strengths to console myself, like excellent gross motor skills, also he understands some things we say to him, he's very sociable, he does babble (though not too frequently), uses some gestures to get our attention (however he doesn't reall...

Whose baby is crawling yet?

How do you get your 3 year old to listen to you? I am getting tired of having to repeat myself or ask the same thing 5 times to be completely ignored and I get so frustrated that I shout to then be told "you're shouting is making me sad" to which my reply is I have asked nicely 5 times and I'm now frustrated. Bear...

Hi mamas, I'm reaching out today because I could really use some advice and support. My 9-month-old daughter is not crawling yet, and I’m starting to feel a little anxious about it. At her recent pediatrician visit, her doctor recommended we do some exercises to encourage her to start moving, but every time we try,...
