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 will say dadada but he just randomly will say it rather than actually calling dadda.. he claps now if I say to clap and will sometimes do twinkle twinkle. He doesn’t point yet. He used to roar like a...

Nursery difficulties

Eldest toddler 2y2m is having difficulties in nursery since arrival of youngest (11 weeks old). They've said difficulties listening, getting up during story time, hitting and grabbing toys.

Frustrated grunting

Is anyone else's little one constantly making a frustrated grunting or whingey sound at the moment??? He will not play with any of his toys, just bites them and moans and then eventually screams. I am going insane 🫠

Baby struggling with wind

My 3 week old who is exclusively breast fed screams the house down at night. She brings her knees to her chest and there is a lot of grunting so we think it’s due to wind. No matter how long we try to wind her / do bicycle legs etc nothing seems to work. Anyone else has this experience?? Thank you!

Should I be worried?

The last 3 weeks I’ve noticed my son doing some of these behaviors. He has his 18 month check up next week so I’ll be asking his pediatrician then, but wanted to see if others have seen similar in their LOs. I have noticed him shaking his head, spinning in circles & rolling his eyes back anywhere from 2-5 times a d...

Screaming and crying

My LO is 6 months old. He still hysterically screams and cires and there's no soothing him in sight. This can be from when he wakes up to having his bottle to soothe him to being put to bed or a nap he will SCREAM cry so loud. Sometimes when he's on the floor doing tummy time or crawling he will do this as well....

Shyness around strangers

My daughter is super loud and confident with people she knows, and nursery say she is the same there, but as soon as we are with people she doesn’t know or in a setting she is unfamiliar with, she is really quiet. We were at a 1st birthday party today and she just wanted to be picked up the whole time and refused to...

The talk?

First time moms to a one and a half year old girl here. At what age do you have that talk about there’s no “dada” or “daddy” in the household? And how do you even talk about it?

My 3 yo son just said “I hate you!” Pointed his nerf gun to my head and pulled the trigger. I’m dead 💀

I had to turn my head because I fell out lmao. Has your toddler said this to you?? When did your kid first say it if at all?? I couldn’t help but laugh. Is that crazy? I think I’m just happy he’s expanding his vocabulary smh this motherhood thing is f****** nuts 😂😭😮‍💨

Speech

Ladies, I'm going incognito as I've posted before about my little ones speech and don't want to seem as though I am boasting, I'm more concerned. He is excelling in speech, he can count to 20, do his abcs and most recently, count backwards from 10 and ends with "blastoff". I am beyond proud of him, but a part of me ...
