Behaviour is just getting extreme.

Hi guys, so my son is 3 in August. He is honestly getting so exhausting, he's so naughty when hes at home. Doesn't listen to mummy or Daddy, absolute nightmare at bed time. Won't let me get him changed, just daddy and then if I start trying to change him he starts hitting. He's just tried to bend his safety rail tonight. Please tell me someone else's is like this 😫

Yes is all I can say 😂 🥵😅😫🤯

I have a girl version. And everyday we’re surviving.

Yep, same here. When my eldest was this age she bit a hole through my nose in one of her rages, toddlers are so extreme 😫

Yep we are the same. 40 min tantrum today after nursery to change her nappy

Im feeling this is the norm for this age, my LO is 3 in August and shes pretty much the same, the screaming is terrible😭😭😭😭

It's survival mode for the next year apparently they calm down at 4 😭😭😭

It’s the terrible twos of course. Mine is 3 next month. And yes mine has been so much hard to handle started to do it outside aswell. She just prefers her grandma instead of me. Only best way is, be calm and give him options to what you want to do and go with it. Don’t put pressure on it and if they want, then change it for something else.

We are the same. I just cried there because it took us 2.5 hours to get him down for bed. His behaviour is dreadful, refusing to potty train and everything. Feel like he’s just ruling the roost no matter whah we do 🫠🫠

Ditto 🆘

Oh yeah: this is my daughter. I keep asking myself what the hell I did wrong so it’s nice to hear it’s not just us!

Sleeping though

How to get my 11 month old to sleep though the night and not wake up for milk..

I just wanna sleep the whole night sick of getting woken up every single night.

My 11 month old ate her poo I’m think

I think my 11 month old girl ate her poo I went upstairs to make his brother ready for she did poo I notice she have yellow stuff on her face … I’m scared what will happen to her do I need to go hospital or should I call gp in morning?!

Can’t cope with sleep deprivation anymore

My 9 month old basically refuses to sleep. He constantly wakes up in the night and like
Tonight I’ve been up 3 hours with him.

He’ll sleep in my bed but I don’t want him in here because then I’m just giving in and giving him what he wants. I don’t even sleep when he’s in my bed either because I’m so uncomfortable.

I don’t even know what to do anymore at this point. I’m a miserable person from the sleep deprivation and incredibly depressed but health visitors and doctors are useless 😭

Nursery settling in period

My LB has been settling into nursery this week and is doing amazing. Only cried once when we re-entered - can't lie I felt a bit betrayed having been on mat leave with him for 11.5 months but I digressed. Anyway for the last two three days he's been waking up 6am instead of 6.30am. Is this normal? Also they only do one nap at nursery at midday. He still has two naps as if he's awake for too long he becomes really fussy and whiny until he goes to sleep so I'm worried how they will transition him to one nap. Also, his nap is just before the time he needs to be nursery each day for settling in between 9.30/10am. Oh and for the first time ever he refused his bedtime bottle last night. Would love to hear your experiences and advice please.

Daughter diagnosed with not what I thought

My 13 year old daughter has been been having neurodivergent symptoms for years from age 9 more so, I have been fighting for a diagnosis and a assesment for her to get her the suport. I took her when she was 10 to the doctors due to what I thought was depression to get her support and they mentioned a possible high functioning autism into it. So we have fighting for a assesment for that for years. I have sacrificed everything my job, my life completly to support her, the half term meltdowns, the agression, the shutdowns and protecting as well as suppporting my younger 2 children. Days where she would kick the door down while I sit behind it until she calmed down as the explosion of her would be so huge I neeeded to protect myself and her siblings. I found out yesterday after going through right to choose assesments that she doesnt actually have autism or adhd but depression and anxiety as the report says and feedback video call. Not being selfish or rude. I have given up everything and that is hard to process and feeling broken and dont know what to do with my life as my litterallly when your daughter has been been having neurodivergent symptoms for years, fighting for a diagnosis and i have sacrificed everything my job, my life to find out she doesnt actually have autism or adhd but depression and anxiety. i have given up everything and that is hard to process and feeling brokengrieving thewhen your daughter has been been having neurodivergent symptoms for years, fighting for a diagnosis and i have sacrificed everything my job, my life to find out she doesnt actually have autism or adhd but depression and anxiety. i have given up everything and that is hard to process and feeling broken past few years of sacrifices and memories ruined for her doing it on as it feels purpose.

The transfer

Does ANYONE have ANY tips on how to transfer baby into her bassinet after each feed during the night, she’ll fall asleep as soon as she’s finished but as soon as I let go when putting her down she’s awake and crying,

From a desperate sleep deprived mum 🥲
