My son has been the easiest baby he barely cries. Lately If i gently take someone from him that he is not supposed to have, move him from something, or gently try and stop him from throwing food at the floor he cries and has a little tantrum. Is this just happening with his age?

How often should my baby be looking at me in the eye? I know it’s a 2 month milestone and he does look at me but sometimes for a few seconds before staring elsewhere. Is there a certain amount of time when giving me or other faces some eye contact that is regarded as ‘normal’?

My toddler has just started stuttering. His speech is generally really good, and he talks loads but now he seems to struggle with his brain and words working at the same speed. Is this a normal phase or something I need to worry about? Any advice on helping him?
WARNING VERY LOUD VIDEO She doesn't seem to be in any pain and has been fed, napped, and entertained. But she shrieks and screams playfully often during her wake windows. Google says it can be normal excitement but can also mean discomfort or frustration. Does anyone else have experience? Is this a normal thing f...
