He cries at absolutely everything, he runs off and when we are walking he tends to stop and just stare at you when you’re trying to tell him to walk… he won’t move unless I physically move him. He’s becoming so ch...

Dropping percentiles

I took Niko to the doctor today because he just had his first birthday and isn’t really mobile aside from rolling places - he doesn’t pull up to sit or stand (although he does sit independently), and doesn’t shuffle, crawl or walk. The doctor couldn’t find anything wrong and thinks he’s just a late bloomer, but we’r...

Need advice

I’m having trouble voicing things that I’m not happy with to my partner. He’s not necessarily doing anything wrong but it’s what he’s not doing that is the frustrating part.
