Should I be as concerned as I am?

My daughter has her 1 yr doctor's appointment on the 11th and I wanna ask her pediatrician about it but she's entering the toddler stage so I'm not sure if it's normal. But we've caught her bitting her hands and arms when she's upset. She also pinches others including herself. Is this normal behavior for a toddler? Two of my brothers have autism and this was a huge sign for them as they reached elementary school so I'm not sure if it's the same thing. Eventually I also want to get her tested for ADHD (my brothers also have this and so does her dad - no longer in the picture btw) her father also has schizophrenia which I didn't find out until recently. What is the appropriate age to get her tested? I'm a ftm so idk what to do or think. On top of this I want to get her legs checked out because of the way they are when she's walking. Will they straighten out on their own? Is this normal for babies? Is this something worth asking her pediatrician about? Down below is a video of this so anyone who has a good idea about this or advice would be very helpful!!!

Newborn sleeping through night

Hi, I’m wondering if anyone else has been through this. My 2 and a half week old baby feeds really well during the day, and over the past few nights he has started sleeping for longer stretches overnight.

I’ve been waking him for feeds, but he is now above his birth weight, so I’m wondering if I still need to wake him or if I can let him sleep until he wakes himself.

I’ve started letting him sleep for around 5 hours instead of waking him at 4, but I can’t help worrying whether I’m doing the right thing. Has anyone else been in this position?

HV due when I need to put toddler to bed.

Shall I leave a note on the door? Try and hold toddlers nap out? The HV appointment is for my new baby due in 2 months and not my toddler.

I am having the home appointment alone as my partner is working away.

Would you put your baby in a daycare without cameras in the rooms?

BF poo 💩

Does anyone else’s breastfed baby’s poop have mucous in it? Is this normal? It’s not a lot but it is every diaper, I’ve read that it is normal and I’ve read that it can signal CMPA. I worry because he is super gassy/has colic as well.

Slapping

Hi mamas! How are we handling the slapping and hair pulling phase 😅 my son's 13M and its getting really aggressive. I've tried firmly telling him no, redirecting, saying "nice hands" and holding his hands and nothing seems to be clicking idk if I should just rock this phase out or what 😭 appreciate any tips and tricks lol
