September 2023 Babies 🇬🇧

Hello, my little boy is 2.5 and I’m wondering what vitamins you guys are giving your little ones? I want to give the gummies but they’re all 3 years plus??? But he’s getting a reoccurring cough at the moment and I am just trying to build his immune system up. He used to have the Arla blue milk with all the vitamins in but we’ve now stopped this so need something else.

My boy has randomly started saying that a chick is there and that it’s coming for him. At first we were looking in the hall way running away from it and having fun now he’s changed and tells me he’s scared of it.

Obviously I’m saying it’s not going to get him/no need to be scared.

But has anyone else dealt with this before? Am I doing the right thing by saying nothings there?!

Our son is showing autistic traits (which nursery are helping get him tested) and at 2.5yrs he's only feeding himself finger foods and specifically only dry and crunchy food. Even then he'll randomly pick a piece, throw it on the floor and eat the exact food item that was next to it.

He doesn't feed himself with a spoon/fork. Anyone else going through or been through this and have any suggestions on getting him to feed himself.

Additionally any tips on getting him to eat wetter foods? Nursery says he eats fruit pieces and veg pieces but at home he just won't touch.

My little one is 2.5 and she’s slightly speech delayed so she doesn’t talk as much as other kids her age.. Got an appointment in June to check if she’s still got lip and tongue tie as she’s struggling with certain foods and words, also sleeping with mouth open and snoring and her tongue doesn’t go in the roof of her mouth according to health visitor isn’t normal..

Instead of calling her dad ‘daddy, dada’ etc she’s calling him by his name 🤦‍♀️

Is this normal?

Is anyone else NOT sending their little one to nursery when they’re 3 and are eligible for funding? Like either keeping them with you if you’re a sahm, with the childminder they’re at or keeping them at whatever other childcare setting they’re at now?

Thanks☺️
