My LO is randomly shaking his head eg whilst changing, playing etc (no other limbs tremoring or anything like that). Is this something to worry about? Hes 8 months.

hi!! putting it short, my daughter does still babble, but there are times where its obvious she is trying to talk. both my husband and i have auditory processing disorder and struggle to understand her. she gets frustrated, and we also get frustrated for her! any tips? im willing to answer questions about specifics...

Does it only when crawling from time to time ? Also pls ignore her hand that’s dirty she crawled into my pile while I was passing broom lol (she’s 9 months old)

Hi everyone, any tips for what to do when an 8 month old (with teeth🙈) has started biting at the start of a feed?

So my little one is 7 months going 8 in a week. She currently arm crawls and will rock back and forth if I put her in the crawling position but doesn’t seem to understand how to do it that way. I’m in now way trying to rush development but I was wondering is there any ways to help her learn how to crawl on all four...

My son doesn’t answer his name, when we put him in his cot and call him he will look as we say where are you? and call him but he thinks it’s a game otherwise he doesn’t really respond at all. I mentioned this to the health visitor and she just told me he’s very young still (14.5 months) I know this can be linked t...

Hey all👋 my 14.5 month son doesn’t have any words, he says mama sometimes but that’s about it. He does babble and blow raspberries but no words yet. At what point should I become worried? I called the health visitor and she just told me to go to baby classes but didn’t seem too concerned yet. Is anyone else in…

Have ur little ones started laughing yet ? I can’t get her to laugh. All she does is give me big smiles , all gums but nothing 😭

I have a 17 month old daughter, that only says mama, dada, her sister name, sometimes NO, sometimes she says open it, and give me very fade… is there anything I should be worried about at this stage Ps: she understands anything you tell her. Example give me the keys, and some other things.

He hardly cried and seems absolutely fine, laughing etc so do I need him checked over?

Hey girls, I was just wondering if anybody knows why my almost 5 month old has started making these noises when feeding? It’s awful as it’s like he’s in pain or frustrated the milk isn’t coming out but it definitely is when I regularly check. It isn’t with every feed but quite often and only seems to be at the start...

Is it normal for your 10 month old to hit and grab faces or is this the start of something i should be concerned about???

My baby opens and closes his hands. Is this normal? He also loves Ms Rachel I am concerned because I look online and says signs of autism is opening and closing hands but I feel like a baby could also do that? He’s meeting all milestones and I never had a reason to question that Anyone else’s baby opens and clos...

Does anyone else’s baby make a wee head/body shake at times like they have the shivers

I feel like my son is very behind. He’s 14 months old. He babbles (mostly mama and baba) but neither seem to be in context. He doesn’t respond to his name. He’s just starting to take steps but not walking yet. He has no gestures other than putting arms up to be picked up. No waving, clapping or pointing. He doesn’t ...

Should I be concerned? He’s always been a bit behind with gross milestones, didn’t walk until 18 months. Ive worried at each milestone but he’s always eventually done it but the closer he gets to three years the more worried I’m getting that he’s not yet running or jumping 🤦🏼‍♀️

When did your preemie start crawling and walking? My LO just turned 1 this month and she’s not quite crawling or pulling herself up yet. Starting to feel like I’m doing something wrong she was born 33+6

Anyone else? What does your 18 month old call you?

My little one is now crawling and trying to pull herself up. She's pretty steady most of the time, but sometimes she falls and we have hard floors. She does have a padded play mat but she doesn't stay on it now 🙈 I do put her in a play pen sometimes but she really doesn't like it so I only put her in there if I'm…

Looking for any pointers on how to deal with a Velcro baby when the father doesn’t have the patience for it. My son is very attached to me and even more right now since he’s learning to crawl. My husband doesn’t have the patience for his crying and need for us to be in his view at all times. Any pointers? Being ...
