My LG is approaching 2. She used to be very good at pointing and letting us know what she wanted. It's been a good fair few months now, she screams the whole house down as soon as she wants something. She becomes frustrated right away and will start screaming at the top of her voice. She does this over EVERYTHING, ...

Anyone else’s 1 year old all of a sudden chasing you everywhere and wanting to be picked up? Even getting up off the sofa she will run at my legs. Before she would happily independently play.

How’s everyone’s baby going with pulling to stand/standing assisted? I have a lot of friends with babies around the same age or younger and can’t help but compare with how far ahead they are even though I know I shouldn’t! My baby girl doesn’t crawl on all fours.. she just commando crawls. She’s pulled up once in ...

My little angel boy has turned into a physcopath these last couple of days. Screaming, wanting to pull my hair, grabbing and smacking my face. He’s one in a couple of weeks. How do I deal with this? I say no and he literally laughs in my face. Is this normal? Or am I doomed 🤔🤣

My nearly 2 year old definitely tantrums by wanting a hug. Like when he doesn't get his way he cries and asks for a hug. He will stop crying as soon as I pick him up. No other reward. My oldest did the classic throw self on floor and we just ignored him and got past tantrums really fast. Should I ignore my 2 year ol...

My daughter is 15 months nearly and has still not said a word? Is any body in the same boat?

How many words can your baby say?

Anyone else’s child kicking off 25/8? I don’t know how much I can cope with the constant tantrums, gentle parenting has unfortunately gone out of the window as I’m finding him so incredibly annoying. I feel awful writing that but I can’t help it, he’s a wonderful and lovely little boy but Jesus Christ man it’s just ...

My 2 year old is on the waiting list to be evaluated for autism. The waiting list is six months or longer and she’s only been on it for almost 2 months . I strongly believe my baby has some sort of autism. I get so overwhelmed because at times I feel like a mom who can’t handle her own child . She walks on her tipp...

I’m a bit worried as my baby is now 8 weeks old and still isn’t giving me proper smiles. Should I be worried?

What did you experience during the terrible 2s stage and how did you manage those things? My son is almost 2 and is biting, hitting, laughing as he continues being naughty, and so much more... when he hits or bites we look him in the eye and say "no, not ok" in a firm serious voice

Doesn’t anyone else’s baby just scream In the car. I’ve tried everything help!!! 7 months

Does anyone else's babies struggle to get into the car seat? My baby curls her legs under so it's impossible to get her in. When I do manage to get her in she screams and screams. Any tips ot tricks? I sometimes bribe her with miss rachel on my phone then take it off her then she starts screaming again! 😭

I don’t know if it’s just my lil bubba but all she does now is shout and scream and cry for everything and anything. Literally since going to nursery she’s developed this strange habit of thinking she can get anything she wants with screaming!

My baby just turned 2 and as exciting as it is i’m so sad he’s getting so big!! Has anyone else been going through their 2 year just not listening all of a sudden though? It’s like once he hit 2 he just has a mind of his own and won’t listen to anything i say, he used to be great at listening if i ask him to pick so...

My 4 1/2 month old shows a lot of interest in crawling and is also always pushing up on his feet to stand. When he tries to crawl he doesn’t use his arms and just inch worms forward. If he’s refusing to support his body on his arms is something wrong? Even when I place toys a little higher up for him to grab he won’...

My LG keeps touching my elbows - if I try to stop it she has a full on meltdown. I read online it’s a sensory thing but i just don’t want her to have a habit, no sure what do or even think , as it’s not normal. Is anyone else experiencing this ?

Could anyone point me in the right direction of how to handle ‘tantrums’ with my little boy. Anything can set him off but usually more so when tired and can’t communicate what he would like. Calming him down is what I’m struggling with. Are there any phrases / techniques I can use that might work better? I have trie...
