Discipline

How do you tell your toddler they have done something wrong? I’m trying to tell my daughter throwing food, hitting etc is wrong but don’t know if she even understands. I’m saying no thank you and uh oh shaking head and then redirecting but she will do it over and over again, probably a toddler thing with her testing...

Behaviour 🫠

Has anyone else’s LO turned naughty? 🤣 Throwing tantrums if they can’t have something, or do something their own way. Pulling my hair, hitting out, grabbing my face. I haven’t noticed her do it to anyone other than me and her dad, she has never touched another child at nursery! It’s happened out of nowhere and…

Milestones

What milestones are your 6 month olds hitting. My baby is 6 months she sometimes giggles loves to roll over all over the living room and pushes herself up on her hands. Is it normal for her to not sit or pull up onto her hands and knees yet ? I feel like she’s falling behind.

Hello! Anybody else going through the same thing, my 3 year old boy won’t listen to anything I say and actually copy everything I say, like as if he’s taking everything I say as a joke, which makes me very frustrated! Any help would be greatly appreciated… 🙏

Anyone know what this noise is?

My wee boys done this once before, but never again. Sounds like a hiccup kinda but I don’t think it is. He was doing it a little after his bath and now he’s fallen asleep doing it for the last hour. (Can only hear it once at the start of the video and once at the end)

Crying in the car seat

My little one is 7 weeks old and hates being in the car seat. The only time he's settled is when he's sleeping, otherwise he will cry non stop until he's out. It's even worse when he wakes up from a nap in the seat. I'm now starting to get anxious when we need to go out and dread the car trips. Anyone else's littl...
