Beach

Has anyone taken their crawling baby to a pebbly beach? Next week we are going to a pebble beach and our 10 month old is constantly on the move, is it a bit of a nightmare? Photo of my boy so we don’t get lost!

15month tantrums

Anyone’s little one super moody lately?! He’ll be 15 months on the 10th. He’s been constantly whiny from the time we get home from daycare to bedtime. I try to limit screen time but I’m pregnant with baby #2 in my first trimester and I am in the trenches 😩🤣 I’m not sure if he’s teething or just going through…

Baby smiling

I’m not a first time mom so I know I sound ridiculous as most babies won’t smile until 6 weeks at the earliest but I swear my daughter is smiling at times and not the wind kind 😂 it’s always in response to me getting close to her making silly noises

Does your one year old respond well to being told no?

Hi, I have a 16 month old boy and he sometimes doesn’t listen to me. I’d describe my parenting style as being pretty relaxed and I rarely tell him no unless it’s unsafe for him or inconveniencing others however when I do tell him no he doesn’t listen. For example earlier on today he was putting his toddler snacks be...

Responding to name

My baby will respond to his name but only now and then, he could be sat right infront of me and I’ll say his name over and over again and he won’t respond or even react is it normal at this age to not respond every time

19 months old boy

When i take him to soft play , he plays only when adult people are not around. But sometimes he waves to adult. He will just stare at the kids who are playing which makes me bit uncomfortable. But some time he tries to talk with kids and when kids parent comes then he hide behind me. Any reason?

Newborn baby cries only when I’m holding him

Lately I’m struggling to settle my baby, he is 5 weeks old. He cries with me when I hold him and is quite unsettled but when I give him to another family member he will generally stop. Trying not to think about it too much but it’s really getting me down. Any ideas why this may be or anyone experienced something sim...

Does it still count as a word if they're not pronouncing it right but you know what it is?

So I saw a post last night about how they need to have at least 50 words by the time they're 2 and it's got me mega stressed. My son has always leant more towards the physical side with his development and his speech has taken a bit of a backseat. I made a list and technically he has 24 words so far but some of them...

Clicky joints

Does anybody else find their baby has clicky joints? Whether we lift her or she is moving about, her ankles, wrists, shoulders etc click. It’s quite loud too (someone across the room can hear it).

Hand flapping

Is it normal for 5 month old to keep flapping their hands while drinking their bottle. Tried to have her calm down before she knocked my phone down but she keeps flapping one hand at a time?? No signs of being too hyper or is it normal ? I understand babies do that but like non stop ? 😅

Toddler Covering Her Ears

Anybody’s else’s LO covering ears when in certain places? Today I went with my daughter to a McDonalds play place and she covered her ears for like 10 seconds. The other day she did it when she wanted me to change the cartoons she was watching. I don’t know what to think of it. She’s been evaluated for Early Interve...

Does anyone else’s 2 year old still not say mummy?

My 2 year old always calls me MON 😂 I have no idea why, he says dad and daddy but calls me mon instead of mum or mummy or mama 😭 it’s quite cute and funny but I just don’t get why he calls me that cause he always used to say mama when he was younger lol
