Biting?

Is anyone else dealing with their babies biting? My twins turn 1 on the 22nd of next month & the biting is getting out of control. My son will crawl to me & then bit me, he’s also biting his sister. I took them off of pacifiers around 6 months, but I’m starting to think that might be the best option now. Is there an...

Zoning out

My little girl is just over 4 months old and I've noticed she's been staring at one place like she's zoning out. She doesn't do it for too long but more frequently past week. Is this normal? Or should I get it checked with gp?

Touching face

When do babies stop touching your face when feeding or going to sleep? Our little girl has always found comfort in touching our face, however its now getting too much as she tries to grab our lips or nose😂🤦🏼‍♀️. She gets frustrated if we don’t let her.. any tips on how we get her to stop?

Is anyone else's babies feet like this?

Horrible picture because my son won't hold still but his second toe on each foot is raised above the others when he's in a resting position and not standing or anything. Is anyone else's babies feet like this?

Is your May Baby crawling?

My LB isn't yet! And while I know he's still not technically 'behind' on it, he is showing no intentions to start doing it, I am a little concerned that he doesn't seem to have any interest in it yet!

ASD

Hi ladies 👋🏼 My 14 month old has always seemed to have this obsession with stacking or putting objects into things. Could be finding an item that fits inside another item perfectly and then repetitively taking out and putting back in, or simply putting things into a box, sorting food into different sections of a…

2yo son gets upset when I try to have a conversation with his dad

Does this happen to anyone else? It's been happening for a while at dinner but seems to be getting more frequent, to the point where I can't really speak to my partner without my little boy getting frustrated or crying. It's only when I'm speaking too, he doesn't mind his dad talking! I can sense it's probably beca...
