Anyone else get SO anxious over new things. Called 111 the other day because she was sick but it was a lot. She was fine and got checked over. Today she’s made gasping noises like when she’s excited but she did it a few more times, she’s fine and has no issues with breathing or anything but it scared the shit out of...

How’s everyone dealing with tantrums?

I saw someone post about this the other day… Wow wow this week has been tough! I know our girl is teething but this feels extra extra Anyone else going through something similar?

Did anyones baby go through an angry phase? Is it just teething? My baby seems to be angry a lot of the time, grunting, shaking and clenching his fists. Is this normal? Will he grow out of it? I seen someone mention this being a trait of autistic kids and Im just full of anxiety

I am seeing regularly on here that little ones are starting to say words - is anyone else’s little one just still babbling?!

So my 18 month old started biting my husband his older brother me and now even his 6 month old brother and I am not sure how to put an end to the biting. Does anyone have any advice ? We have tried say no bitting its not nice and redirecting but that’s not doing anything.

My little one has been crawling since 4 months old and saying I’m tired is an understatement. Any other mums chasing their babies around at the moment 😄?

Hi ladies My little girl did her first proper crawl this morning and has been all over the place so we set up her playpen while she was sleeping. Brought her down and she absolutely hates it 😬 we've put a bunch of toys she loves and given her some snacks but she's just screaming and doesn't like it even though I'm…

Anyone's babies reacting to a certain type of music?? Mine seems to enjoy being serenaded by the likes of Metallica (especially One) and Motley Crew (Kickstart My Heart in particular) 🤣 it also really likes when I play these songs and drum in time on my belly, I get so much response 🥰 It's gonna be just like its…

How old were your little ones before they started crawling and trying to walk? My twins never had an issue with any of it and started right away, but my last baby will be a year old on the 26th and he is not even crawling yet. He pulls his self when he move, I know they say not all babies are the same but he is star...

Is anyone else’s baby still not talking or really babbling? My son is the first baby so not really around other babies a bunch, but he’s a very quiet baby and only really babbles a little….

My son started saying mama and mum about a week or so ago, he said it a lot on the first day and then never said it again for almost a week. He then said it again the other day for a little bit and then nothing for a few days. He is saying it again today however to him it is just a new sound. I don’t think he thinks...

I am new to this group. My son’s turning two at the end of October. I’m having a hard time processing everything with him. They said he has red flags for autism. We have him in ST and OT. I’m terrified he’ll be non-verbal but honestly I don’t know how to ask people for support or advice since he doesn’t have a diagn...

What does your partners do to help with your babies? I am completely lost what to do anymore, I feel like he’s struggling to connect with my lo but then says “it’s embarrassing for his friends to hear her cry”

I am 3 months pregnant and have a 2 1/2 year old. Any tips on how people have communicated it to your LO. I have mentioned it and she just doesn't have a clue lol

How is your child’s speech?

Not speaking just screams when he wants attention and flaps his hand during dinner time refusal of food not all the times. He doesn’t point yet but understands no and looks at certain things when asked. Can say certain things if prompted like up and down sheep or cow. Doesn’t say mama unless distressed. Occasionally...

My boy is 9 months old and I’m wondering if it’s too late to give him a comfort toy? How do you give them it to get attached or is it just luck that they’ll get attached to it? He’s starting nursery in 2 months and I want him to have something that he can find comfort in when I’m not there 🥲❤️
