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. He’s lucky his little sister is the most chilled baby ever wh...

Anyone else’s little one horribly mispronounce some words? Mine will call bingo from Bluey bimbo 😂🙈 and horsey he says as horny 😂🙈 I’m praying he grows out of it soon as him saying horny in public is a little embarrassing 🙈

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...

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?

Vulnerable post but I just wanted opinions on what people thought my lb is 21 months can only say mama dada dad nana and do a pig noise and a monkey noise only when he wants to never really when asked he occasionally looks when I call his name but if he is doing something playing or watching tv he won’t respond to h...

Almost too embarrassed to post but my (probably a bit neutospicy) son is 21 months and in full swing of imitating and picking up new words all the time. And although I have said this from the start, my partner has still sworn out of habit eg when dropping something and of course lo and behold my boy has started to s...

Where are your babies at in terms of talking? Ours is signing and communicating extremely well but not so much talking except for animal noises.

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?

Hey - my 22 month old son is not talking which worries me. When he was one he would say mama dadda and thank you. Now he only says dad..

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?

Suddenly started crying loads after being put down but never used to? Anyone experienced the same?

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???

My 4 month old daughter is OBSESSED with her hands being in her mouth - so much so she will not go off to sleep because she cannot leave them alone! Has anyone experienced this? I’m having to swaddle her again at night!

My daughter just turned 3 and suddenly she is so emotional and on the verge of a tantrum 24/7 It’s like she’s exhausted and I don’t know if this is normal. Everything I say or do sends her into a massive melt down where she falls to the floor kicking and screaming and I mean it was sudden, straight after she turn...

I have some self harm scars on my arm. Self harm free for over 2 years. My baby is 9 months now and sometimes traces it with his fingers. At some point he will ask what they are. What do i say?

Anyone’s babies not giggling yet? My boy is 13 weeks, he coos and makes lots of noises and very smiley but not giggled at all yet? Just makes a sort of squeak when he smiles sometimes 😂

Any strategies to avoid this?

I went out to get some things and my husband stayed with our 10 month old he said she slapped her face few times could it be because was past her nap time and was tired ? Is this concerning behaviour for a 10 month old

My little one makes a grunting/groaning sound quite a lot which from Googling seems like it could be due to wind as he'll often be fidgety too. I have tried doing cycling legs and massaging his tummy which does sometimes make him fart but nothing seems to make it go away fully. Does anyone else have the same issue a...
