My little girl is 8.5 months old she’s crawling pulling herself up to stand. She hasn’t waved or clapped hands yet I do it daily with her to see will she do it for me but she hasn’t yet. Is everyone else’s baby doing it yet ?

My almost 1 year old has been starting to freak out during screen time. She will stand on the tv stand and cry at the tv so we cut out her usual shows (blues clues being the main one) she adores blues clues but I don’t know if it’s overstimulating her or what. Has anyone else had this problem?

Anyone else’s little one having a full on meltdown and hitting you when there annoyed.

My 17mo son still doesn’t stand. I spoke to the HV when he was 10mo but they don’t refer for physio until 18mo. It’s not the walking it’s the fact he is still not standing that’s the problem. Anyone had this with their child? What helped? We’ve never used walkers or jumperoos either x

My 11 month old is quite jumpy and doesn’t like to be in loud environments or gets unsettled in a room with lots of people/noise. Any tips on how I can get her to overcome this anxious feeling?

We have been living in our apartment for almost 7 months now and have never complained once to our upstairs neighbors. But they are some of the loudest people ever. Inthe middle of the night, the nighttime, in the morning, just all day. My baby is currently struggling to sleep and there is just a continuous thumping...

I love hearing my son (23 months) chat and sing to himself as he’s going to sleep. We hear him from downstairs and on the monitor. When does this stop? I have to brace myself. It’s the sweetest and cutest thing I could ever imagine. 🥹

Omg😩mamas I think I have messed up I think I put my LO in his walker to early my baby will be turning 1 the day before thanksgiving and he’s not meeting his milestone as far as pulling up to a standing position using furniture ,cruising along furniture or not even taking his first step he gets around in his walker…

So I know all babies have their own timeline but my baby is almost 11 months old and she’s not crawling yet nor showing signs of walking. She does roll everywhere and loves to stand but doesn’t pull herself up without assistance. Should I be worried or just let her be?

My daughter is not even 2 yet she’ll be 2 in 2 months andddd im stressed outttttt. Any suggestions on how to deal with it?

Anyone else’s little one all of the sudden very emotional, vocal, mood swing-y? My son has turned a new leaf and is very vocal about his likes and dislikes. Throws mini tantrums if he doesn’t get something exactly as he wants. Not unusual for his developmental age, but are others experiencing it? How are we handlin...

My little one is 5 months old and generally a happy baby. However, over the past few weeks, I’ve noticed that he cries whenever someone else, like my friends or neighbors, tries to hold him or talk to him. He goes to baby classes and does fine there, but this behavior of not wanting anyone else to hold him has me co...

I feel so bad for feeling this way because I do love my toddler more than anything. But I can’t help but miss my baby. The one that always smiled at me whilst nursing. The one that giggled at almost everything I did, never had tantrums, never hit/ kicked screamed for the smallest things. The long coffee mornings wh...

Hey all. I have a step son who is 7 years old. Arrangement is 50/50 shared care between dad and mum. His mum has a phone call every other day with him. we have noticed on a few occasions that she refers to him in an inappropriate manner. Yesterday, my partner has taken him for a hair cut. Mum had asked SS if he ha...

I fell into the hype and my 5 month old is not impressed one bit lol. So she now has the dancing cactus and crawling crab, I’m sure some moms have seen videos. She’s almost six months so I wanted to introduce a new style of toy, for some reason I thought she would enjoy it. She has a calm demeanor but lately she’s b...

Hello ladies. My 17 month toddler hasn't start to speak words yet, only says Mama/Dadda. Anyone else in the same boat? Also, does anyone know of any place where I can take her for speech therapy? TIA X

Does anyone else stress over the monthly milestones?? I have anxiety ever. single. month. My daughter does things on the later side in some areas and I freak out every month she’s behind. Right now I’m panicking about her communication skills, imitation, speech etc. I feel like my anxiety isn’t helping her and pro...

My baby has throwing his head back, like hard enough to throw his whole body back and hit the floor, whenever he gets upset. Like when I tell him no. And then since he hit his head he starts bawling. Is this normal? If so any way to get him to stop doing it?

Can someone tell me if this is normal? She doesn’t do it all the time and is always alert. It seems to be when she’s happy or frustrated but i don’t know if i need to be concerned?

Please tell me this will pass, my 5 y.o. started fake laughing and it's driving me crazy with how grating it is! I haven't told her she can't because theres no harm, but internally it's like nails on a chalk board. I just wish she'd go back to her real laugh, that's what I want to hear because it's just her
