i agree! mine is just about 8 months and she’s already noticeably meaner. I think it’s just because they like just learned to pull hair and just learn to start smacking and know the difference between like happy and mad and I think now that they know that it just plays a huge factor in their day-to-day life.

Hey - my son turned 8 months on the 27. I feel like he’s more active and gets very excited with seeing family and at nights gets super energetic. They are getting teeth so could be it’s bothering her and how she’s expressing. Some nights we have difficulty but after numbing cream or medicine he goes to sleep

I tell everyone I have an 8 month old going on toddler age. She’s very active, feisty, smart and aggressive. She quickly realizes if she doesn’t get her way. She crawls everywhere, pulls herself to stand, tries to walk and hurts herself sometimes. She is breastfed and forcefully pinches my breasts while drinking milk. It’s so harsh I have to put mittens on her.

I mean i notice my girl changed every week since birth.. at 8 month tho my girl was just curious and very smart.. she started talking at that age.. yes talking and knew numbers very well ( got it from her father ) and sign lamguage..she was gentle and delicate but exstremely bossy.. never mean.. and attached to me but also kind and friendly to others.. as for my lilttle boy whos almost 2.. hes just a koala thats so attached to me and still babbling but he can throw a whack as hard as a baseball bat..hes not so open with others tho.. just pure mama boy..

My baby boy turned 8 months old. He’s becoming more active, curious, and bright every day. It amazes me how quickly he’s learning!
He’s crawling everywhere now, and let me tell you, this little boy is FAST like a thunderbolt! 😂He notices everything and wants to explore everything.And apparently, he already knows how to throw a little tantrum when he doesn’t like something. 😂 I also kept picking up his teether and toys whenever he dropped them, only to realize that he was dropping them ON PURPOSE! 😂 Such a meanie baby!The sleep regression is definitely challenging. Some days, he only naps once, and lately, he’s been waking up throughout the night because of teething. I feel so bad seeing him uncomfortable.
But through it all, he’s still my sweet and sensitive little baby boy.
So proud of all us moms going through every stage, sleepless night, and little milestone. We’re doing it! 🩷

Mine definitely changed, mostly for the better. First few months were rough with his reflux. Now growing past that.. he’s a lot happier but a lot more emotional lol. He doesn’t just cry, he SCREAMS if he doesn’t have his way. Some days I wait until he’s done throwing a temper tantrum and others he decides to have panic attacks🥲 but I’m just glad he smiles and laughs more. He always gives the stranger danger face to others now which is hilarious. Snuggles in my shoulder when he doesn’t want anyone else to take him🥹
