Behaviour how do your little ones behave? How do I know if it’s frustration or something more

2 days a week at childminder I’m told my just 2 year old is an angel. Very loving cuddling and kissing his childminder, her family and the other little boy who is 20 months old. At my mums 2 days a week he’s pretty good, odd outburst if he cant get his own way. I feel like with me / at home it’s tantrum after tan...

Is it weird that I feel angry when my MIL introduces herself as ‘mama’ to my 15months old on video calls?

my baby seems confused as he looks at me when she keeps saying mama. I always correct her saying grandma but she always say mama anyway.

Reading books

Random but do you read to your babies? I did when he was younger and couldn’t move, he loved it and would smile and laugh along but now that he is crawling and grabbing he won’t sit still, he either crawls away to something else or tries to grab and rip at the book. I love books and would like to get back to reading...

22 month old and talking

First time mama here, and wondering if anyone else is struggling with their little one not saying many words? He understands us very well, follows directions, when I ask him to locate a specific item/thing he can do so without any trouble. But I’m starting to worry about his vocabulary. He is very expressive and tri...

When should I be concerned about speech? (Or lack of)

We have lots of babbling every single day and he says mommy/daddy although I’m not sure if actively is saying these to us or not. He has copied the word car and dog but wouldn’t do it if I asked. I’ve read online 20 words between 12-18 months. Were 14 months so I know a bit to go but I’m panicking

Crying at nursery drop off

20 month old, no words?

My 20 month old is still not really saying any proper words? He is very vocal but it’s just gibberish and random noises. Should I be concerned?

Baby keeps screaming

He is 13 months, and has the most loud, high pitched, penetrating scream, it’s just horrid! It’s not when he’s crying, it’s when he wants attention, or wants something he’s dropped, or if he wants us to read him a book etc. We could be giving him lots of attention, so it’s not like we are ignoring him and he’s tryin...

Advice please

I'm a little concerned about my LO. I'm maybe over thinking alot and these probably are development things, but also traits of things too. - Head banging: When tired he will bang his head (I know this is a normal thing) but he also does it when he is frustrated, just at random sometimes and I have noticed a few ti...
