Velcro baby

My daughter is almost 9 months old and whenever I leave her sight she’ll cry continuously no matter what the person does to try and get her to stop. I want to go back to work soon but it’s difficult with her always crying when I leave. Any tips on getting her to stop and be fine with me gone for a few hours?

Super naughty 16 month old

My baby girl is just shy of 17 months now, so she’s almost a year and a half! I would say she’s almost overly advanced? She walks and run, dances, sings, is able to communicate most of her basic needs and can also be really loving giving us cuddles and kisses (on her own terms of course😂). However she’s been…

Struggling with baby being aggressive!

When my 10 month old is tired and frustrated she jabs her fingers in my eyes, scratches, tries to pull chunks out of my face! I obviously never get angry with her but she knows the word ‘no’ but will not stop no matter how many times I say it. It’s so hard not to feel frustrated when she does it as it’s so painful! ...

Worried about speech?

My little girl is almost 16 months, and she can say words, like ‘shoes’ ‘oh dear’ but she doesn’t say Mum and Dad that often. Is anyone else experiencing this? I’m such a worrier and overthinker, I just constantly panic that she’s behind.

Supermarkets

Hi all, so my 3 month old is generally very chilled out, until we go to a supermarket and she hates it, gets really worked up and upset. My mum and a couple of friends of mentioned to have said it’s an autism trait and to keep my eye on it. Obviously I just want what’s best for her and if she is showing signs of th...

Grunting loudly

I have an almost 7 week old baby and around 3am she begins to grunt. Very loudly. Last night I actually realised that she was asleep whilst doing it. It can last a few hours. I really don’t think it’s Reflux. It seems more gastrointestinal. Any advice welcome.

22 month old weirdish behavior

Idk if this is weird or if I'm just being overprotective but my son has done this twice now. We never really got out a lot since we moved and just recently started going out and going to playgroups etc. Twice now (not right away after being in the room with them for a little bit) but he's ran up to people he's neve...
