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...

Hey everyone so I was wondering if anyone else’s 4 month has been cranky every since they’ve turned 4 months old or they’ve gotten their vaccinations?? Cause my little girl has been cranky and just crying a lot , which is not like her cause she is usually happy and laughing a lot . But it seems like ever since she’s...

My non verbal little boy has made new sound today!! He is under speech help as he can only say mum when upset n communicating is working on with pec cards! 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...

My baby still isn’t crawling (Christmas Day baby) she shuffles around on her bum, rolls everywhere, pulls herself up to stand but prefers to be sitting rather than in a crawling position … she rocks back and forth but doesn’t get any further than that … should I be worried she’s just turned 10 months 😩❤️

My son is 11 months and he's having tantrums already .. if I don't give him what he wants he will cry and scream and throw himself around, its hard to try and stop I because obviously he's so young i can't explain anything to him I can just try and calm him but I don't want him to get older thinking this behaviour i...

Is anyone else’s baby still not walking? My baby’s 13 month and still isn’t walking. She used to walk along holding both hands, but now just lifts her legs up or throws herself to the floor. She cruises along the sofa but that’s it. Any tips on encouraging her to walk? She does have a push along walker but also refu...

My LO has started throwing herself back when sitting anywhere. Also she’s started to pinch and hit Is this normal behaviour for a 6month old is this due to her just exploring and developing? People tell me that she’s going to spiteful. So I’m questioning myself

We seem to be in a bit of a phase where LO loves to strain/scream/shout. Like a serious guttural shout 🥴🤣. She wakes up doing it, and when she's having floor time she'll start by chatting away and it just escalates. Is she just testing her newly found vocal range? Lol

In the last week my usually sweet only sometimes crazy 2 year old has suddenly turned for the worse. He has started telling me ‘no’ when I tell him to do things. He doesn’t listen whether I raise my voice (which I don’t like to do) or stay calm. I’ve tried many different approaches it’s like he just doesn’t care to ...

15 month old is constantly biting and it HURTS. I can’t help but scream in pain when it happens which ends up scaring him and I feel SO bad. I of course hug him afterwards and let him know it’s not ok to bite but myyyy goodness. Please share any of your stories and tell me I’m not alone lol

My little guy will be turning one November 2nd and he still hasn't said his first words. He has said Dada it's more so him making the sound and not knowing. We read every night and we talk to him everyday. I'm not sure if I should be concerned if I sound a bit crazy, but I don't know, I make sure we may make eye con...

my 8m learned how to crawl like 3 days ago and he crawls so funny,, it just looks like he’s ready to just jump up and start walking 😅 git all sentimental today because he’s just getting so big and ugh it’s crazy does anybody else baby crawl just pushing off and dragging the other?

Anyone else's baby talking but not moving anywhere yet? Our LO can say her name, her brothers name, all done, again, yes and a few other things but is not yet crawling or pulling up to stand. She can't even get into a sitting position by herself yet. She only rolled both ways about 3 weeks ago for the first time

There’s ADHD in my family and I’m pretty sure I have it too. So I’ve always been on the lookout for signs in my toddler I guess. He has been using full sentences (and quite complex ones at that) for a long time. Every time we meet new people they always mention it. But I’ve also noticed that he NEVER stops talki...

I am so stressed and anxious about my 16 month old baby, he is not gaining weight, he is on the 3rd percentile now and sometimes lower than 3rd percentile He weighs only 19 ibs. They are doing alot of lab tests to try figure out what os going on. But I am literally so stressed. Did anyone had just tiny baby who is ...

Has anyone else experienced their little ones hitting? my daughter is 1 & we’ve only ever taught her ‘kind hands’, showing and demonstrating how we use our kind hands, which she has always been amazing with! however as of the past 2 or so weeks, she’s been hitting. She hits people in the face when she doesn’t like...

My daughter stopped saying mama when she sees me. My daughters pediatrician said that she should be saying 3 words by now ,but the one word she was saying. She stopped saying. Idk if it's my mom guilt for not being home enough or if she really is not progressing as much as she should. Or if this is just normal... I'...
