How can I get my 18 month old saying more words I name everything she touches and talk throughout the day she only says 6 words and not very often

What would you do when you give your BD your childs daily schedule and give them certain times where cant call to talk to your child but thats the only time he calls? And when you express your annoyance just waves it off? Like my sons father called seconda after i finally settled my son down for a nap and told him b...

3 year old has suddenly started screaming constantly and for no reason. He used to do this when he was about 12-18 months old and then stopped but now he has started again. It is driving me nuts because he is doing it really late at night and I am so worried it gonna start annoying our neighbours. Anyone else going ...

I heard that not pointing can be autism. Not talking may not be a concern yet, but not pointing? His gross motor skills are through the roof, very advanced for his age. What are your thoughts based on your experience with your kids: typical development or autism? Also, I'd really love to hear from mamas whose bab...

My 2 month old has been fussy and constantly crying even when feeding he cry’s as if someone is hurting him ( which no one is ) and I don’t know what to do, it’s hard for me or dad to get him to calm down. Any suggestions or advice? He’s been like this for 2 days already ever since he got his shots …

My sons behaviour has gotten so bad lately. Hitting, screaming when frustrated & just not listening at all. I’ve tried all the approaches and nothing works, just feeling deflated and feeling like it’s something I’ve done that’s caused this, or hoping it’s just a stage I have to ride out, i just feel at a complete l...

My son took some time to start properly babbling and imitating, especially imitating. But he did it, and it was there on and off. However, I now realize I haven't heard either in a while. Also, he has no first word and doesn't point. From what I know of autism these things might be a symptom. His gross motor skills ...

It's breaking my heart, I feel like I've done something wrong. My girl has just turned 18m and seems really behind with her speech. She will say Ma and Da and will say Doh instead of Ta. She makes lots of noises, is conctantly babbling or just sort of grunting. She does have a lip tie which the dentist said could ...
