My 19 month old started daycare about 5 weeks ago and she’s acting the exact same. Behavior change, constantly whining, tantrums, and she’s been sick since she started as well.

Idk if this will help but my 19 month old is having more tantrums lately and not in daycare. I tell myself it's probably because he gets frustrated because he can communicate some, but we don't get it or he doesn't get what he wants (like he doesn't want his diaper changed or wants the TV remote)

same here with my 19 month old

Same issues I think it’s a things due to separation anxiety he started two weeks ago and when he comes home he cries if I’m not holding him regularly or when we tell him to certain things

Former preschool teacher here! Any big life transition comes with a 6-8 weeks adjustment period; it is quite common and as long as you’re consistent, she will adjust fairly quickly❤️

My son is 19 months and 2 days and I'm planning on sending him to daycare soon. I'm hoping for the best bc I'm sooo scared. FTM 😭

I think is more the age... but also daycare adjustment might play a part, 3 weeks might be little time if she was never in a group setting.

do you know if she is napping at daycare okay? In my experience (educator here) I find that full time kids struggle to nap at first and it manifests in difficult behaviors/acting out/generally having a hard time at home in the evenings.

19 months and no daycare over here, and this kid is having BIG feelings this last week.

Avatar

she was struggling the first week from what they told me but the teachers said she is doing better now also maybe because she still breastfeeds which I’m trying to wean her off

Could be the kids around her . She’s picking up learned behaviors or she just not used to going and has to adapt to being in a different environment

Is this normal?

Is it just my husband that does this? He is able to work from home via his computer and in the mornings and evenings he is on there doing his job. When he is done for the day he tends to stay in the room and either play video games or watch something. He will occasionally come out and play with the girls for a few minutes and that’s it but when I really need him he says he is busy. My daughters are both 1 year old now and I am just wondering how much involvement should he have with them now?
Idk if this is the norm or not…..

5 month old activities

Hey everyone my baby is 5 months old and I want to reduce/cut screen time as I have read up on how bad it is what activities did people do to keep their baby entertained. Thank you in advance.

Tablet for kids

Alright don’t need any negative Nancy’s telling me not to get my 2yo a tablet so if that’s what your gunna do please don’t participate in my poll.

We’re about to move cross country 3+ day trip and my 2yo and 9m hate the car I’m talking scream their heads off till they are out of their seats. We’ve already changed car seats and it didn’t help so I’d like to at least have one entertained and sit next to baby and try and distract her or put her to sleep. Our new car has tvs but since they are rear faced my 2yo can’t see it.

Debating getting her a tablet or dvd player right now on long car rides I end up giving her my phone because I get so overwhelmed sitting in between both of them screaming and crying.

And yes I do bring different toys I bring snacks I play songs try to distract her other ways but for the sake of not losing my mind on this move I think this is best.

-A very overwhelmed and anxious to move mama 😓

My friend is over from another country but I don't feel like leaving the house

One of my old friend's is visiting where I currently live and we agreed to meet up today but I feel so tired and exhausted from everything that's been going on with me. I feel if I meet her I'm going to end up having another breakdown from the exhaustion which I have been having often. I'm just thinking about how I need to rest to be able to deal with my toddler and go back to work on Monday without feeling like I need another weekend. I'm torn on what to do so I need you guys to help me decide
