“Hitting”

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?

15 1/2 month old not talking

My son used to say mama, dada, bye bye, up, and no all the time. He will be 16 months on the 29th. This started happening about a few months ago around early August it just all stopped. I thought it was a phase but now I’m starting to get concerned because all his words are gibberish now. I know they said after 2 th...

Is anyone else finding their baby impossible to entertain at the minute?

We are playing with toys, singing, dancing, going for walks, dancing fruit on the tv. He is so whiny at the minute he won’t even sit in his chair for 2 minutes whilst I have a wee without moaning 😂😂

Angry baby / temperament tips

Anyone else’s baby constantly growling / grunting / making little whingey noises ALL day? I don’t know if it’s just a communication barrier thing, but I’m really struggling with it and guess I just need reassurance it’s just a phase and not his personality? I don’t know how to help him 😢 I just want him to be happy…

How soon did you know, on reflection?

I'm just wondering when those who have children with autism reflect back to them being babies, what were the first inclinations or signs that now make sense? And how old were they when you first started suspecting? Asking as an autistic parent with a 5 month old

Struggling

Has anyone else’s 9 month old just completely changed in the last week or so? My boy is usually so happy but right now is so grumpy all the time, keeps crying randomly which he never usually does, won’t stay entertained with anything at all and can’t decide what to do. Even is a fight getting him in the pram…

Baby reaching/exceeding mile stones

Anyone else feel like us mums with babies who are learning fast, are silenced on this app or shamed for being proud? I have empathy for those who worry about their babies not reaching milstones but we should still be allowed to celebrate ours!

Mil rant

Anyone else’s mil do this? So the other day I brought my son over to see his grandparents. And my mil was holding him, and she made a lot of comments like so “Oh your ticklish just like your daddy” (I’m ticklish too) Or “You’re just like me! You love chocolate” (I love chocolate “ Or “You got that attitude from...

21 month old tantrums

My little girl just seems to be tantruming a lot at the moment, she seems to get frustrated really easily and just kicks off at us. Don’t get me wrong she’s very clever and she is happy and loving but I’m just finding her pushing it lately. And when she does tantrum they are so big I don’t know what to do. I don’t k...

Anxiety

Ever since my baby turned around 3 months, all I’ve done is panic, worry, always thinking something is going to go wrong, I’m doing a lot better now she is getting a little bit bigger but I do have my days when I feel physically sick to my stomach from worrying. Worst part is, I know nothing is wrong, and I know I’m...

Normal?

Baby girl has been making these noises (on her inhale) for the last couple of days, is this just her discovering she can make noise when she breathes in or does it sound like something else going on? I'm sure it's nothing but you know, ftm and worry go hand in hand 🤦🏻‍♀️😂

Is my baby "bad"?

My partner keeps saying our son is "bad" because he grabs our faces and throws his toys. But he's 10 months and I think it's juts normal behaviour. He's generally very happy and everyone says how alert and smiley he is but my partner just thinks he should be calm and sit still all the time. I keep telling him thi...

He used to roar like a...
