Walking

Hi all my son will be 15 months in a few days and is still no where near walking. He can pull himself up easily and cruise round furniture but is just not interested in walking. The HV has already reviewed this in Oct and I have another review in Jan. Should I be worried? He's good fine motor wise and has started do...

How many words does your 22m old have?

I feel like my son doesn't have as many words as he should. He tells me he wants something by pointing and grunting or crying. He just recently started saying "more" when he needs more water in his cup. But he doesn't say much besides the usual mom, dad, buh-bye, car, truck etc. He definitely doesn't say 2 or 3 word...

Feeling guilty for lack of play

Is anyone else struggling to find the time/energy to play with their newborn? Mine is 6 weeks old and I feel so constantly exhausted by the days that I think I haven’t made enough time to play with her (which I know is important for brain development) other than doing lots of singing and some walking around the ho...

Screaming before every sleep

My baby girl in now 3 months and she has been screaming for ages before sleeping. She has been doing this from about 3 weeks old. I have tried everything. Longer or shorter window, different positions, rocking, walking etc nothing works. She eventually falls asleep but it is never calm. Anyone experienced this? Edit...

My daughter throws bad tantrums.

So my almost 2 year old ( turns 2 in March) she has been throwing the worst tantrums the last couple of weeks. She bangs her head, throws her body around, she will try to bite me, she hits me… any methods on how to get her stop? She’s testing her mamas patience.

Walking vs pre walkers

When do you make the change from pre walker shoes to walkers? She now does around 20 steps alone and never sits down in the house but not sure when she should actually swap over ?

The word ‘no’

Anyone else’s 11/12 Month olds either completely ignore the word ‘no’, even though they know what it means. Or cry when you say it? I feel like I must say it 100 times a day but she just does not pay attention! I fear the tantrums have already started 😳

I hope this will help anyone.

Good morning, mama's. So, for a very long time, I knew my son was different. Not to compare children, but he would do things my daughter hasn't done. Even then, I had a feeling he was different. I didn't see the signs until he turned 2 years old. I was teaching him how to count and wave using his hands, and one day,...

Crawling

Anyone else's baby have no interest in crawling at all? I really don't think it's going to happen, I've tried everything but if he's on his front he just rolls onto his back as he absolutely hates it. If I put him in his walker tho he's unstoppable. He's 9 months tomorrow

My baby is 11 months old, he is furniture walking since 8 months old and since 10 months old he can stand up unsupported for a long time but he still doesn’t walk unsupported.

Is this normal?

Since around the 7 month mark my daughter became obsessed with putting her fingers in mine & my husbands mouths for comfort. She’s just turned two & it’s still happening! I don’t know how to make her stop, it’s become unbearable but she screams & fights to do it to fall asleep & comfort throughout the day 😭 Does…
