My baby has these outrageous tantrums and I’m so annoyed by it. Like at diaper change, when I go to lay him down he’s kicking and screaming and twisting and lifting his butt in the air. Like what is the problem I’m just trying to change your diaper!!!! When does this pass or should I be concerned? Also, when I take something away from him, he’s falling out on the floor and kicking his feet, it’s exhausting! Anybody else? Please tell me I’m not alone. And how can I get him to stop all of this?

It’s normal. Can’t really stop it. They just have to go through it. Lasts a long while

It's completely normal. I'd recommend giving an alternative when taking something away. My daughter hated diaper changes as she got older and now I let her "help". Like unstrapping the diaper or taking the wipes out. Gives her something to do because she would much rather be playing than having her diaper changed. Overall just takes patience! If he sees you getting upset he'll get upset. Babies can't give a hard time they are having a hard time. Hope it helps!

You are NOT alone! I provide a book or toy during diaper changes (doesn't always help). Most of the time I ignore her during the tantrum and then she wants attention so stops
that used to help us too but it was before this tantrum phase lol
I will try this thanks so much

Same here with the tantrums. Wondering when this time will calm down because 😥
thank you, this eases my mind
thank you, glad to know it’s normal but sometimes I get worried lol

Yeah this is my kid too. Pretty sure she’s teething her molars 😵💫

Normal and exhausting.

Yep completely normal. Along with my 14 month old my 3 year old also does this.

Totally normal and will be until toddler years are over so this is just the beginning … it really teaches us as parents to regulate our emotions and keep us in check. Instead of lashing out too. We are the adults, babies and toddlers can’t talk yet and can’t regulate their emotions so we are there to help them and recognize their emotions… good wishes! Some good feedback here

You can redirect him. If you’re taking something, immediately replace it or move him to something else that he CAN have. It will most likely stop the tantrum immediately

I give my daughter the wipes to play with for diaper changes. When I take something away, I give her something else. This works for us for now.
