My little is almost 17 months and only says mama and dada. And lots of noises and babbling. Are your kids talking yet??

Hi ladies…my baby is about 17 months and recently he has started hitting. I can tell he’s doing it when tired or over/under stimulated and I just do with him how I taught him with the dog…I’ll say no and take his hand to slowly touch me/the dog or I’ll slowly touch his arm and repeat “gentle, nice” but he definitel...

Hey. Desperately looking for advice please, from anyone who's gone through the same. I know this is just a stage and I've been told it's normal, but it feels like my little boy is the only one who acts like this. I never see another kids behave the way he does. He's an amazing little boy. He's 1yr7months old. And ...

Anyone else’s baby not crawling yet or showing much signs of being close? My wee boy was 4 weeks early so maybe I’m expecting too much but I feel like he doesn’t have much upper body strength 😵‍💫

I'm sure I see way too many post with people stating their baby is 6 months same as my boy.. but doing things like standing and pulling themselves up.. one post their baby was basically doing cartwheels on a floor bed... is my son that delayed or are your 6 month old doing this??? He's sitting unaided now and I felt...

If I lay my baby on her mat, play gym, bouncer etc. she will start crying within 2 mins. Anyone else?

My 1 year old daughter has started smacking, I have no idea where she has got it from, we don’t smack, she’s never seen smacking between me and my partner🤯 I know kids go through phases of trying things, but I’ve tried multiple things of trying to get her to stop. I’ve tried by saying no, by ignoring her, by fake…

Anyone else getting beaten up by their baby? Every day he's constantly thumping me with his fists and he's pretty strong! And kicking me in the csection scar any time he can especially during nappy changes.

My baby has started crawling, and I don't like placing her on the carpet because we have 4 dogs( if you know you know). Hair everywhere. I do, however, put her on a blanket, but it moves when she does making it slippery and hard to crawl on. I'm looking for a non-slip floor mat to put on the rug and floor, please....

My 2.5 year old told me that I have a baby sister in my tummy.... we only found out we are pregnant Saturday and definitley not said anything around her 🤣🤣 do they just know?!?

How long did it take your little ones to pick up :(

Interested to hear opinions on whether to, and how long to let babies cry before soothing them. My baby is 5 weeks old and I want him to learn to self soothe, however I also believe that everything at this age contributes to a child’s development, and I would hate to do anything that would detrimentally impact his b...

I am almost 34 weeks pregnant and my first is 20 months old and the toddler tantrums are out in full force! He has become incredibly clingy and wants to be carried (only by me) 24/7 and I am struggling!! I have seen that from 32 ish weeks toddlers can come very clingy. Has anyone experienced this? Any advice is incr...

Hello! My son he wont share any toy with other kid, today when we went play area he wouldn't allow any other kid in the ball pit when other kids trying to play with him he pushes them away screaming no. Help I don't know why he is behaving like this any other boys behaving this way?

I’m feeling a bit upset. My sister in law saw my son yesterday. Today she sent me a whole long text about how she’s concerned about my sons speech. That he’s far behind . 🥺. He’s two years old, and yes he doesn’t say too much but he says a few shape words like star , circle etc. He says daddy . Has anyone else had…

I feel terrible, I think my baby is addicted to Ms Rachel. He's only 11 months old. Has anyone cut their child off of TV when it seemed to start to get out of control? I need advice 😭 it's been hard with hardly any help, my baby is so active and needs a lot of stimulation but I can't be playing with him all day…

Anyone's baby just whinging loads at the moment? Mines always been a happy bubba but recently (since learning how to crawl and sit up) is moaning and whinging loads when on her play mat, when she'd usually play quite happily for ages! I need someone to tell me this is just a phase 🙉

is it normal to cry thinking about my baby turning 1? i cry at least once a day i feel like im crazy lol

How many tantrums does your little one have a day? Feels endless!

Does anyone else’s baby around 4-5 months just swing on them? My baby does it kind of when he’s tired or being fussy with me, just repeatedly hits my face or ends up kind of knocking himself on his head… are y’all’s babies also doing this?
