Community Posts, Tips & Support on Baby Milestones

Help! I need tips. My two-year-old , level 3, is a serious elopper. It happens every public place we go, and I'm not lying when I say it's the WHOLE time we are out unless he's really into something or in his stroller. He wont hold my hand, screams and headbutts if i try to pick him up while elopping. He doesn't und...

Family kissing baby *only* a few times on face. But, how to tell them to politely stop. It’s our first baby. 🙂

Random but am I the only one who finds the 5 little ducks song a bit traumatic? Lol my 10 year old nephew hears it for the first time on Easter and he was like “where is this going” 😂

If you block someone on here, does your conversation disappear from their chats list? I stupidly shared my child’s name with someone as we were having a back and forth conversation and they seemed nice enough but they stopped replying after I told them what my child’s name is. They were still making their own posts...

Are your babies pointing already? My little boy turns 1 in May and hasn't really said his first word, just babbles a lot. Hasn't pointed either - is it a reason to be concerned?

Help!! My baby has been so fussy and making this awful grunting noise for a few days. Almost seems like she's just aggravated because I thought she had to use the bathroom but that's not the issue. Anyone else dealing with this or have any advice? She is 5 months and 3 weeks.

What’s the chances of having a very wild, active, run everywhere, doesn’t listen, jumps of everything, doesn’t play ‘properly’, fussy eater, shouts everything toddler than isn’t autistic/adhd. Is this normal toddler behaviour or not?

My 6 week old baby cries a lot, she’s very fussy, won’t let me put her down for more than 5 mins, the only time she’s quiet is when she’s feeding or asleep. Is something wrong ? Are all babies like this? I’m a FTM so don’t know what’s normal but I can feel myself getting upset because she always seems upset!?

What’s your baby like outside of their home? My little one is a wild child and so daring with the people closest too but as soon as she’s out she’s so shy and reserved. She just stands back and watches people or stares them down!

My 16 month old boy is still not walking starting to get worried as he climbs on everything he can and toddles around holding on to things or my hands any advice

So my 4 year old started doing this new thing where she pouts if she doesn’t get her way. She’ll run somewhere and cross her arms with a pouting face and when we try and talk to her she ignores us. Any helpful advice on how we should handle this?

I figured that was normal for this age but his grandparents think otherwise. 😒. He does play independently many times, and he sleeps great once we get him to sleep. Also he's adjusting to our new baby, but had this behavior to some degree even before.

Hi, I’m wondering if it’s normal for a 2-year-old to regress in skills he had already developed, such as his speech. A few weeks ago, he was progressing really well, speaking in 5–6 word sentences with some help from us. Suddenly, this week, he’s not using such long sentences, and when he’s excited to say something,...

Someone reassure me they are going through the same? My little one screams until he’s coughing and wrenching when it’s time to lie in bed, if he can’t have a certain food, if it’s time to get dressed, time to get undressed. I just want to try and keep him happy and so many of my mum friends aren’t having the same...

So my nearly 16 month old has started hitting my face and finds it really funny even when I say ‘no’ firmly and show him gentle hands or even ignore him put him down and walk off just nothing works. He seems to only do it to me really not his dad or anyone else just me and earlier I thought to myself I know it’s onl...

Hi so obviously I understand all babies are different and go at their different places but I was just curious to see how many words your babies are saying? My little girl says roughly 7-9 that I can remember but google says they should be saying atleast 16 by now and I was just curious if others are in the same boa...

So daughter started saying dada …yall I can’t I just had her yesterday 😭😭

My baby says “Mama” and “Dadda.” I’m not sure he fully understands what they mean yet, but sometimes he says them at the right moments when he wants his mom or dad. It also sounds like he says “doggy” when he sees the dogs around us. And every once in a while, he’ll say a cute little “Hi!” in the mornings ☀️
