Arm flapping?!

Is anyone else concerned about excessive arm flapping and ankle/toes twirling in their little ones? 😬 I noticed it from a couple of months old as he would never be interested in rolling or reaching for things but instead would just lay there and flap and twirl with his legs out rigid straight... as he’s grown its…

Speech at this age

What is actually considered ‘normal’ for a toddlers speech at this age? I read so many different things. I know every child is very different. My little boy says around 70 words. And he’s starting to sometimes put two words together such as all done, bye bye …, all gone, purple grapes.

Lack of speech

I am starting to get really worried about LO. In general he still babbles and doesn’t seem very interested in mimicking sounds - he does try to occasionally but it’s very hit and miss. Is anyone else experiencing this?

does anyone else kid or kids annoy tf out of them sometimes?

I have one child, he's 5. Just turned 5. HE Annoys me so much sometime lately, mostly with repeating every single question I ask him as a question and asking me questions about EVERYTHING every 10 min. Is this a phase? I love him very much, but I find myself just wanting him to leave me alone sometimes.

Foot pain…?

My little boy has been running around all day in his crocs and has never had any complaints about the crocs before so I don’t know if it’s the shoes but he randomly stopped running and was telling me “ow booboo” and was taking off his shoe to show me his foot and was limping a little I was watching him the whole tim...

sexual comments around your children?

Intimacy is lacking but the sexual subliminal comments are driving me insane. At the playground with our son while they were up on the ramp, I mentioned how it was wet over here (I was down below on the ground) and he says kinda low, oh you’re wet? I ignored it. If anything sounds “sexual”, he makes a comment or ...

Tantrums

SOS! My 15 month old is doing this thing now where when we tell him no or take something from him he gets mad and will hit his head on the floor or the wall. Does anyone have past experience with this? Is it a phase that will soon pass or should I be concerned!?

Do toddlers not learn that jumping off from height will get them hurt? Mine will keep on doing it despite making her aware of dangers, she just doesn’t learn. Is something wrong with her?

It actually makes me very angry she isn’t learning from the first time, even though she was crying the first time round I feel as though she is doing it on purpose despite knowing the consequences even right after the fall she would happily try jumping off again. Has anyone’s toddlers done this? Are they just testin...
