Pushing boundaries

I could have written this (minus the pregnant part). Sending solidarity. Sounds like the typical 16/17 months turdler phase 😵‍💫

My 17 month old is teething, throwing tantrums (especially at nappy change time), and is back to waking up at night. She won't go back to sleep until I give her a bottle... I have tried patting to sleep, she has a dummy and Riffy toy, and letting her cry just makes her worse. I'm 35w pregnant and keep bloody telling my daughter to be grateful she isn't in foster care or raised by dero parents. I'm losing my shit coz I literally have no energy to move or take her out anywhere.

This is my 17 month old too. Don't worry, we're all there with you 🥴

Something that weirdly works with my son is counting to five. Sternly and not breaking eye contact. Usually he stops what he's doing on 3 and laughs. I think he thinks it's like a game and maybe it works to distract him idk? I know he doesn't know what numbers even mean yet and it's not like if I get to five anything happens 🤣 but it works most of the time!

I’m fooled already 😀 so cute 😍

I’ve just been scrolling through groups and saw this post. This is my daughter atm. She doesn’t stop and screams when she doesn’t get her way. It’s really tiring and hard.
