Speech therapy, is my Child behind?

So my son is almost 2 of course and he is an only child who stays home with my mother n law during the week so my husband and I can work (he’s not around kids). My child says maybe 25-30 words. I think he’s supposed to know 50-300 words at the age of 2. I’m thinking of getting him evaluated for a speech delay. Any ...

Slowly losing my mind from toddler constantly repeating herself!!!

Y’all I know it’s normal for toddlers to repeat themselves but my almost 2 year sounds like a broken record and it’s literally driving me crazy!! It gets so bad to the point where I get so overstimulated that I yell back at her. I know it’s just part of development and I’m happy she’s learning so many new words but ...

Is your baby giggling yet?

Has your LO started laughing or giggling yet? My LO has giggled a couple times but struggles to do so. It’s involuntary and very short. Should I be concerned ?

Tantrums

Is anyone else’s 10m old having tantrums?! My baby is generally a really chilled, happy baby but randomly this week he has started having a tantrum when I take anything off him e.g. his water cup when he’s just playing with it not drinking so water going everywhere! Proper tears when he rarely cries. I’m not sure h...

Your child's receptive language?

How much do they understand you? Name response? Reacting to "no"? Looking at things or people you name? Pointing at things or people you name? Doing simple commands like "come here" or "give me that"? Or even more complex commands like "go get a toy from the other room?

Baby can’t stand up without hands or sofa

Baby is 13 months today and still unable to stand on her own doesn’t seem to want to.. When she does she tries without her arm to support! She can pull to stand on any object but should I be worried she can’t do it alone yet?

Tantrums and Acting Out

We just brought home our second baby and our two year old has been going through it. He is throwing tantrums left and right. Even when playing with toys he’ll just start throwing things and screaming. He’s climbing the bookshelves, getting into all kinds of things that he shouldn’t be, etc. I know this is normal be...

Hey mamas, How are we all doing? My 2-year-old going to be 3 in January keeps stomping his feet, throwing him self on the floor, and running away, screaming crying ( he's very verbal and can talk ) I don't know if this is usual behaviour for toddlers or if I need to be more strict. I tell him off and say “That's ...

Change in behaviour

Hi all. Have any of your 6 year olds suddenly become rude and very moody? We used to have so much banter, but now any little thing makes her explode and be so rude and disrespectful. I’ve also got nearly 2 year old and she’s not very nice to her sister sometimes. Thank you.

Can’t leave the house

My 13 week old screams every time I put him in the car, the pushchair, the baby carrier and the sling. Every time I try and leave the house I make it to my drive before he is screaming and crying. Has anyone else experienced this? I feel so trapped in my own house.

Patience with Toddler

I find myself running out of patience with my 2 year old. I don’t know if it’s the hormones or it’s a phase for her but she just doesn’t listen and it’s stressing me out.
