My mum tells me children used to be quieter

So my mum, my mum's friends and alot of the older generation I speak to say that kids were quieter back then. I remember bits of myself being quieter too and I used to listen to my mum but my kids are 3 and a half and 1 and of course I don't expect the 1 year old to listen but the 3 year old hits me sometimes…

Swaddling question

My little one is 2 months and can consistently roll to her left side (not roll over, but turn her body so she is lying sideways on her left and she is actively trying to keep going). I have been trying to transition her out of swaddling- one arm out, and then the other night both arms out. Also her OT said she has m...

Irritable with toddler

Anyone else find they have zero patience for their toddler due to newborn exhaustion? I know he’s still only little but it’s so hard to find compassion for tantrum number 9 of the day when I’m trying my best to give him attention and also juggle the baby.

Face smacking - frustration

Hey! I just wanted to post here to see if anyone else has experienced this. Our little boy has a habit of hitting/smacking his head when he gets frustrated or cross about something. I was having a read online about it, and it does appear as though this is just a way for them to express themselves when they can’t voi...

15 mth old won’t wear shoes!

Daughter has been walking for over a month and we got her fitted for a pair of shoes. We chose ones that are really soft and light. However she has complete meltdowns when I try to put them on her and refuses to stand on them. Any tips? Anyone else had this experience?

4 month old toys??

My freshly 4 month old loves standing and jumping. Everybody keeps saying I need to get her a jumper, but all the research I've done says to wait until they can sit up by themselves and she can't yet. Are there any toy recommendations where she can stand or jump that are appropriate for where she's at now?

16 Month Old Growling

Hi Moms lately my little one has started growling. He does it when eating, playing or if he thinks he is being funny with us. Not sure if this is normal but it’s gotten to the creepy level and weirded his grandmother out when she was feeding him tonight. Has anyone else experienced this?

Is this normal??

My daughter will be 4 in May. She knows all of her colors, ABC’s, animals, and numbers. But she still sometimes has that baby talk where I can’t understand what she is saying. Has anyone else experienced this, and should I be concerned???
