helpppp

I have an 1year 10 month old who will not stop hitting, headbutting, kicking and climbing all over me constantly, like if i try and sit down for a minute he’s on me straight away doing one of these things and i’ve tried ignoring it, a firm no, time outs, walking away, distractions but nothing seems to work!! I’m really exhausted as my partner works 12 hour shifts and although we go out and about every day i feel very lonely and almost like i’m raising him alone half the time:( my partner also tells my it’s just a phase but it’s been months now and he’s still not over it so any advice would be so much appreciated 🫶🏻

This is completely normal unfortunately

My son does this and he’s a suspected autistic child

Omg my son is the same age and is doing all of the above. It's so stressful. I'm glad to hear that it's just a phase.

ugh, that sounds super tough, like you're in a wrestling match 24/7! have you tried giving him a little space to play on his own with some toys or activities? sometimes they just need a bit of independence, ya know? here's what the 'Heal Baby Care App' says.... "It sounds like you're feeling overwhelmed, and it's completely understandable given your situation. At this age, children often express their emotions through physical actions, and it can be challenging to manage. Since you've tried various methods, consider setting up a structured routine with designated playtimes and quiet times, which can help your child understand when it's okay to be active and when to calm down.
