Speech

Is anyone else's little one not talking.. I'm a bit worried, my son does a lot of vocal noises and whining but no speech. His nursery have raised they are worried about his speech as he should be talking more, we talk to him loads at home, ask him questions, use simple language but nothing 😔 x

Heavy handed toddlers with newborn.

Anyone’s else’s toddler purposely heavy handed with their baby brothers/sisters?

What can I do?

My 9 (nearly 10) month old will not stop screaming. He screams during the night, when I’m changing him, when I’m trying to feed him. I’m now worried as he’s barely eating any solids and only taking milk. I can’t find any reason as to why he is screaming, temp normal, no rashes, etc. I’m at my wits end.

What is my son saying?? 🤣😫

He says "Seebee" or CB, probably 20 times a day, for weeks now. I have no idea what it is and it's driving me mad!! I've thought it's maybe been the following 'Sleepy" 'TV' 'Sheepy' 'PC' which is what he calls PC Selby from Postman Pat. But none of that seems to be right. He hasn't ever watched Cbeebies, so it...

Very noisy 14/15 month old!

Hi all! My little boy is almost 15 months (will be on 5 May)… and over the last few days has well and truly found his voice. He doesn’t say any words yet (normal just babbling), but the screeching and screaming. Blimey! Haha. He’s a super happy little chap - and I think he’s just doing this as he’s “found” his v...
