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 ...

Banging head

Does anyone else’s baby do this ? He does it for hours and hours on a night waking up every 2 hours or so, it’s at the point where he’s getting bruises as he moves to the side of his cot. We have a paediatrician appointment on Wednesday but would be nice to go in with some insight, we thought it was an ear infection...

Concerns

Alright moms, here’s the deal. My 8 month old has been on the slower end of things. He didn’t smile till 3/4 months, didn’t roll till 7 months. I was always okay knowing babies grow at different rates, but now our pediatrician say that she’s watching him closely to see if there is the possibility of autism. Now I’m ...

Signs of autism? 16 months

My son has started walking on his tiptoes in the last couple of days. Not all the time though. He also sometimes walks round the room in circles, sometimes it's around his toys, sometimes he thinks it's funny. Should I be concerned about this?
