Speech delay

I'm feeling like a bad mom...my son is 18 months and still babbles. I know that it takes some kids longer, but after leaving his 18-month appointment, his doctor said he's concerned he's a little behind.

Every time my partner or I look at him, he does it with the biggest grin on his face to catch our attention. What’s less funny though, is his latest discovery, which is screaming. He’s been experimenting with ...

Do many other peoples toddlers get very obsessed with things?

For example we played a game of hide and seek one evening before bed and now it has to happen every single night which is now becoming a problem as he doesn’t want to get in the bath and is trying to delay it as long as possible. Another example after dinner he throws all of the cushions off the sofa and jumps over ...
