My 4 month old said “mama” for the first time

Now he’s been repeating it non stop, while giggling in between—it’s the sweetest thing ever 😭🩵 I’m curious to know if any other June babies started to reach similar milestones yet?

It’s not all the time but if anyone tries to touch...

Violence

Why is my 14mo so violent and what do I do about it? He is so violent so much of the time. He is always biting, hitting, nipping, pinching, scratching me, pulls my hair, throws toys at me. It's starting to wear me down and I'm concerned about how violent he is and how often it is.

9 month old

My 9 month old will not roll from tummy to back. He nowhere near crawling & he’s getting so frustrated, he just lays on his tummy and cry’s. The crawling isn’t bothering me so much, it’s the rolling. Iv mentioned to my HV & she told me not to worry but I think he would be so much happier if he could just move about....

“Normal” development?

My little boy is 9 months next week. I have some concerns, but I keep getting told that it’s all “normal”. He isn’t crawling (but is very close) - he doesn’t babble loads (but is noisy).. he doesn’t repeat sounds I make and he doesn’t hand me things (like toys). His eye contact seems good, and he likes people - but ...
