3 year olds really bad behaviour.

My 3 year old is exactly the same. I didn’t think toddlers were like this. She’s my eldest. I get the constant screaming, back chatting and they seem to get worse slightly each day. You’ve got this mama. I know how you feel honestly I’m trying to juggle a 5 month old and deal with my 3 year olds tantrums. It’s exhausting. I normally take extra time in the toilet or 5 mins extra in the car after popping to the shop x

Oh love. What kind of things are you trying? Are they in nursery?

It's normal but every child different only on my 3rd child did I realise we didn't have just terrible twos but testing threes. Be strong be consistent lots of positive reinforcement, distraction and getting him involved around the house really helped me. But I am looking forward to him starting nursery next week 2 days of peace.

Thanks girls for the advice. It’s just unbearable most days, and when you don’t feel 100% mentally anyway the struggle is just so much. I have support but feel like I’m on my own recently. My partner works and doesn’t get half of the aggro I have. He thinks staying home with kids is easy. I can’t wait to go back to work!!!! Especially with a 11 month old who is into everything now. Yes @Mel s she’s in nursery and will be full time school in sept. It can’t come quick enough x

My 3 year old is doing exactly the same. He is going between completely fine, very helpful and kind to screaming and hitting and kicking. It is awful when we are out as I’m having to take him home when he is like it. I remember my daughter doing similar but not quite as extreme as him

Omg I'm going through the same. Honestly feel like my son doesn't even listen when I tell him not to do something and when he doesn't get what he wants he starts throwing things and having tantrums. I have a 1 year old daughter and she's now coping what he does. Honestly feel like it's double trouble 😂 I just don't know anymore 😕

I feel you, my 3 year old is the same. I used to think it will get better as they grow but it’s just getting worse. She doesn’t listen. Cries and cries about wanting this and that. Sometimes I get really overwhelmed. Doesn’t want to ever share with her sister

I have had a week of this with my toddler! Very tantrumy suddenly: im blaming: - time of emotional development allng with - lack of sleep, esp with time changing (and routine is late as its been on my own for 3 nights putting 2 kids to bed so its got late) - their grandma is poorly so not been doing usual timing on nursery runs - so much chocolate - so much other crap food over weekend too - 4 days of holiday - not enough time with toddler vs 4 mo - and not eating enough at home as getting picky Just keep going with the soothing and letting them know ur here for their big feelings is all im doing! Hope its a quick phase and passes for everyone soon

If it helps my son is exactly the same! I’m sure they will come out the other end! Hang in there!! X

Aw girls look like we’re all going through it. It is so comforting to know mind we’re all in the same boat. I always think there’s something going on with her. I’ve been in a much better positive mood today and it’s rubbed off majorly on her. It’s hard to be positive when you’re so mentally drained, sleep deprived from one year old and struggling with your own ‘big feelings’!! Thanks all for the comments hope we all see a light at the end of the tunnel soon 💡❤️
