Milestones/transitions

Hi! I'm finding a lot of my bubs friends are changing at this age. (15 months) my boy is not walking yet but is close, still on 2 naps. 8 teeth. What are your babes up to?

I felt the same. Everyone else had babies that were walking for ages and mine didn’t. She just started walking and all of a sudden in 2 weeks from her first step, she can walk long distances, walk with shoes on, almost run and all with excellent balance. At the same time her vocabulary just exploded. I felt silly for worrying so much, so just know it’s ok! She has 8 teeth as well and has been on 1 nap since 12 months. She has always been a good night time sleeper though so I think that’s why she has always been early dropping naps.

My girl has been walking since 13.5 months. She got her first tooth at 10 months and now has 9 teeth (4 top, 2 bottom, 3 molars) still isn’t talking though. Knows how to say mum, nan, ta.. but just chooses not to 😂 I was upset thinking she was behind in her milestones as she didn’t crawl until she was 10.5 months and my friends babies were crawling at 5-6 months.. but every baby is different and they are all perfect in their own little ways xx

Hi Elle,

My son is 16 months and he isn’t walking yet taking short steps so hopefully he will get there soon. He is down to one nap and usually sleeps for 3hrs during the day but then won’t go to sleep Until bed time which I try and do that at around 8-.830 but some days are harder then others. His got a few teeth and two molars (to scared to check actually as he just wants to bite and they hurt) haha 😂

My daughter sat unassisted really early but then didn't roll over for ever. I was so stressed about milestones that I took her to her GP about it and we were in the process of finding a physiotherapist but then one day before the appointment she just did it all on her own. Then the day before she turned 10 months she just decided to crawl... and then the next day (literally) she stood up and walked! And I've been chasing around after her ever since lol. She has 8 teeth and has been down to one nap since about 12 months and has been sleeping through the night from 9 months. Don't stress about this stuff! They really just do things when they feel like it haha

Yeah it was a shock to say the least. Oh wow I forgot, 18 months appointments are coming up soon! We haven't had one in person for soooo long because of covid. I'm sure he'll be up and running in no time but I wholeheartedly mean it when I say enjoy life without a little maniac who demands to walk no matter how slow or how many stops for leaves and specs of dirt. Oh and not to mention the inevitable tumbles and tears that make you feel like a flop of a mother than can't even keep their child safe

8 week immunisations

My 8 week old has his first set of injections tomorrow and I’m abit nervous. Does anyone have any advice for after the jabs? I know they get a temp after so have got some calpol to give just before hand. Should I put him to bed in less clothing to make sure he doesn’t get too hot? Any tips from your experience with first set of immunisations? Am I worrying more than I need to? 😅

11 month old constantly standing in cot

Please tell me someone has some advice for this cause wow it’s trying. My almost 11 month old is fully on the move now and his new favourite thing is repeatedly pulling to stand in his cot. The problem is that he wears a sleep sack (mainly so his legs don’t get stuck between the bars tbh lol) so he’s not stable enough to lower himself down. So earlier he fell backwards and hit is head and now we feel like we can’t just leave him to it. Typically it’s his first full day at nursery tomorrow and my first day back at work IT’S LIKE HE KNOWS!!
Please tell me someone has some tips. Currently we are quietly placing him back on his back every time but he just keeps doing it! 🤣🤡

Took 9 week old to a family party where there was loud music and she was next to the speaker for most of the time (about 3 hours). She slept through most of it. Do you think she has hearing loss from this?

Freaking out right now :(

Struggling in the 4 month regression

How are people getting out of the 4 month regression? I’ve been looking it up and it says I need to be trying to put him down drowsy but awake but this does not work for my LO. Every time we do this he ends up being wide awake and after almost an hour of trying we have to contact nap/rock to sleep. I want to avoid rocking to sleep because now when he wakes up in the night he needs to be rocked back to sleep which he never used to need.

Nights are constantly broken because we are up 2-3 times to rock him back to sleep. Please give me your tips on how to survive this and how to get out of this!! Constantly feel like I’m failing and doing something wrong
