Anyone else’s babies showing signs of crawling?? I feel like it is way too early, but my LO is 21 weeks and has started doing downward dog pose, but balancing on her head (eek!) and trying to scoot her legs back and forth. Is this normal?? I am not ready for this yet!!

Anyone’s baby SCREAM like they’re in pain if you set them down and walk away?! Or if you redirect them from getting into something, I don’t know if I have a 9 month old or a toddler! Teething, leap, all of the above and I’m STRUGGLING OVER HERE 😂😂 least favorite month!!!

I've started to notice my boy doesn't follow simple commands like 'bring me the ball' or 'can I have that please ?' anyone else in a similar position. Should I be worried ?

Let me first make it absolutely clear that I totally understand that tantrums are completely normal behaviour for a toddler. But how are you guys dealing with them? My son’s tantrums have gone up a notch in the last week or so and we’re starting to see him hitting out at us, getting noticeably angrier than previo...

My poor baby cannot go most car rides without crying if there is no one in the back with her. I’ve tried different toys, noises, talking/singing to her. Sometimes just nothing works. Does anyone have any advice for this?

It just seems to be constant all day! My little girl crawls up to me and moans with her arms up, I pick her up to put on my lap or hold her and she instantly just squirms out of my arms to get back down again! Anyone know why they do this?! 🤦🏻‍♀️😂 Photo added of my munchkin 🩷

Is anyone else struggling with endless crying? My baby is 5 weeks old and spends most of his time crying unless he is asleep or at the breast (which he never wants to come away from!). It’s very rare he will sit with me content. Even cries in the pram and the carrier. I feel at such a loss and like such a failure th...

When your baby stands, do they stand more on their tip toes or whole foot?

Is anyone else’s LO suddenly having major big feelings and tantrums? Our daughter has been generally easy going to date and not a big crying but lately she will burst into angry tears, throw herself down on the ground and have tantrums for long chunks of time. She can say lots of words but some we don’t fully unders...

My baby girl has made this noise ALL day everyday for the last 3 weeks. Any ideas anyone? I’ve tried everything to get it to stop, but she just keeps going. She’ll stop to smile/laugh and then carries on 🤷🏻‍♀️

Has anyone's little one achieved a milestone then not done said thing again for weeks? My son started rolling back to front a couple of weeks ago (did it 5 times in one day!) but since then, he's not done it again... Is this normal/should I be worried?

My toddler, 19 mo, is extremely aggressive and physical and his temper has been seen since he was born and even from his kicking inside me. When he was a baby he would scream around 90 percent of the time he was awake, hated the buggy so was screaming all the time in it, kicking around and never be able to calm down...

I have a 14 month old boy and he pulls his hair. Mostly at night maybe when he’s bored or starting to relax when putting him to bed? Idk. And it’s not softly. Wondering if I should be concerned. He has his check up next month.

Anyone else worried about their LO’s talking?? My little girl is saying a few words but not many and picks and chooses when she wants to say them. I can’t help but worry and freak out when I see other children her age speaking loads and copying everything they’re asked. Does anyone have any tips how I can help her a...

And listening to music whilst having some sensory play he made a new sound / noise! 😍 Any other mamas age 17month with non speaking baby’s!? And suspected…

Has anyone’s baby said mama or dada yet? My 6m old is saying what sounds like mama very often but I think she’s very early… could it be or is it just coincidence?

Our lb is nearly 10 months and i honestly don’t know what to do. for the past few months he’s gotten so ‘aggressive’ pinching, squeezing, kicking slapping. it’s like we have a toddler… I cut his nails every 2/3 days to stop him being able to mark me but it’s not even enough anymore. my legs are covered in bruises fr...
