Developmental leap? Sleep regression? HELP

My baby turned 1yo a couple days ago and she started screaming bloody murder before every nap and bedtime. Like, her screams are scary and loud. It doesn’t necessarily last, but it can be long (20-30 minutes). She doesn’t settle easily and refuses categorically to be put down…I am about to lose my damn mind. Is someone else going through this? Did you experience this? Please help 😭

Are her molars coming through at all? They caused chaos with our sleep. Also I guess worth checking sleep routines etc there’s a napped dropped or falsely dropped for a while. Deffo a developmental leap for them too! X

There's a really fussy period right around a year and another at 14/15 months. Related to learning routine and then learning things didn't always follow routine. It's a really big thing for brains to learn. Separation anxiety is high too. Molars can also contribute but hard to know if that's it unless you can feel them coming in.

My son “wiggles his bum” not sure how to approach it

He is 3. He lays face down and goes left right - wiggles his privates on his bed/sofa etc. Calls it “wiggling his bum” should I be concerned or is it a good idea to set boundaries? Not sure how to approach this. Advice appreciated

Breastfeeding past 12 months

Guys im getting irritated. Ive been ebf now 8 months and my mum keeps saying in diff ways that “oh ur mummys gonna wean you off the breast soon” when shes 12 months.

And today shes telling me you cant breastfeed past 12 months.

And when i said i am going to and want to reach at least 2 years. Shes not saying “oh so u wanna breastfeed till 5”

Like what?

And then she’s saying because i still have baby weight i should go on manjaro. But obvs cant do that while breastfeeding.

So cant you still loose weight while breastfeeding past 12 months through diet and exercise?

Is anyone else’s family saying this about breastfeeding past 12 months? My mums just making me feel like im doing something wrong.

Is it not normal? I feel just annoyed because this is my baby and if im good with still breastfeeding her and if she still wants to breastfeed why should i stop.

How does breastfeeding past 12 months look like ?

Thank you! My rants over💗💗

Allowing him to do as he pleases

Right…I know I’m not the only one. My lil one wants to pull everything out and go through everything… and it’s so cute and I love letting him explore….However somethings are not appropriate for him to touch and his getting tired of me saying No and I’m tired of telling him No. So today I’m thinking of a solution…🧐

Don't know what to do

Hey im a first time mom to my baby girl. she is 20 days old and last night was up most the night. I've had 2 hours sleep total im so tired but she won't sleep at all. She will wake up and have some of a bottle and then when I put her down after burping her she will start crying half an hour later for more. She's on 6 ounces of hungry baby formula. Im just not sure why this is happening. Could it be sleep regression?

Wake window ideas

Hi All my LO is 9.5 weeks, sleeps really well at night (a 5-7 hour stretch, followed by a 3-4 hour) but that means she is awake lots in the day, she’ll have 30-40 minute naps and is wide awake 1.5-2 hours at a time, before I can even think about trying to get her back to sleep.
I’m just looking for age appropriate wake window ideas, she hates lying under her baby gym, she’ll do probably max 10 mins a day, we do tummy time, but again she’s not a fan. She loves just sitting and chatting with me face to face and reading books, we probably read 6 a day.
I’m open to all ideas please
