Is this a normal tantrum?

I took his clothes and nappy off as he washed his hands and got soaked. He had what felt like a 30 min tantrum. Head banging, trying to put his wet clothes back on, screaming. I sadly couldn't calm when he was hitting himself, scratching at his chest etc so I screamed for him to stop. I just don't know if this is normal. And I'm so sad and so exhausted

We’ve had a few of these over the last while, over something completely random. Inconsolable. Do you think he’s tired? I think the few times I’ve had these really inconsolable ones he was tired and that made it worse.

He was tired but I couldn't not change his nappy or put him in his pjs. He literally went to sleep 5mins after his tantrum finished

Aw it’s so hard when nothing is calming them! I do think it’s normal form time to time to just have a total Melt down for toddlers so don’t worry x

Thank you, I just feel so exhausted between his being ill, not sleeping and his tantrums. On top of that I'm trying to hold down a full time job. I just feel like I cant cope and I'm being a really shitty mum

My son is 2022 and YUP

Thank you for the reassurance 🙏
