Help

I’m going through a really bad patch with my little one at the moment and she’s making it really hard to cope with her mentally. I don’t know if it’s terrible 2s or what but it’s as if she’s never happy. She has a happy life, spends 3 days a week at nursery and the rest of the week we are off doing things together however the last few weeks have been unbearable no matter what I do it’s constant, and I mean constant, whining and paddy’s. Has anyone ever experienced this? I’m really struggling with her please if anyone knows what I can do to help let me know.

I'm going through the exact same thing and honestly I've no clue! It's as if she's never happy! Ive just been trying to get my daughter to open up and tell me why she's sad and then I just play with her 1 on 1 ... It seems to help for a little while until she has another episode! Keep doing what you're doing... You're doing great x

I had this recently, and he is in childcare too and started refusing to go, getting upset outside - I put a visual timetable in place and that helped us! Pictures of what we were doing that day, in order, so there was no ambiguity and he knew what was coming next. It's not perfect, he still has tantrums but sooo much better now he understands a bit more about the day xxxz

We had this and it turned out he wanted to go up to the 3 year old room. We spoke to the nursery about it amd they put him up early and now he is happy going to nursery or being home with me. Not liking the room he was in at nursery was affecting him massively but it's quite hard to know what the thing is. I hope you manage to figure it out!

Same here. my toddler has been been to nursery so is with me constantly. We go somewhere EVERY single day. He's so unhappy with everything but at the same time doesn't know what he wants when I ask him. He randomly comes up to me when he's happily playing and just starts making unhappy noises and can't tell me what he is unhappy about
