Attitude with toddler

Same to all of this. By the end of the day I feel like I’m going to have a tantrum. Lmao. Sorry I am of no help 🫠

@Stephanie I've been very close to having my own tantrum as well 😂

Hi Isabell my name is Jasmine! My son is 5 years old and he went through a period of having severe tantrums and loss of appetite My advice that I have experienced first hand is make sure he/she is staying hydrated, if he/she doesn’t want to eat try offering any kind of small snacks throughout the day, fruit cups, crackers, yogurts, apple sauce, etc give him/her choices, you can have this or this Where as your moving it’s a huge life change for your toddler and toddlers have a very hard time expressing their emotions, get down on his level, and just talk to him calmly and open loving arms let him know that it’s okay to be mad and sad but not okay to be rude or disrespectful. My method always works for me I open the door for my son to come talk to me and if he can’t calm down I gently set him in his room or my 1 year old in his crib with their comfort items, whether it’s a stuffed animal a blanket etc I wait for them to calm down and then reproach them.

I’m going through this with my baby girl she’s 15 months and when she’s having a tantrum I help her by offering something to drink, a snack or her favorite toy that sings or has lights, or sit in a corner and start reading or playing with her toys and she will calm down and come to join me. Talking to her to calm down doesn’t help at this age at least with my baby they don’t really understand. My friend is a behavioral therapist and gave me these tips and they have been working so far so I hope they help you!❤️I also know her nap times so I put her down 30 mins before her nap time before a tantrum starts bc if she gets overtired she will fight her sleep. They are also teething at this age she has 3 teeth coming in at one time they just started to peak through so that’s the culprit of her tantrums rn but Iced Camomile tea with honey helps with calming her and teething pain.

@Bobbie ill definitely try this! I'm not too sure if he's teething because he got 4 molar teeth in February and they've all been popped out since the end of February. Unless they get more teeth than those at this age

I sometimes bring food into the bath if she’s fighting it. For nap time my baby falls asleep only when she has enough sleep pressure. Otherwise she might need 15-60 minutes of being held or quiet time. I take my baby outside to each, like out on the front porch, and let her self feed. She gets to make a mess and also walk around. Each baby is different though and this is what works for mine.
