Baby Milestones

I was pushing my 10 week old through the high street today and one guy showing off his car came speeding through, revving it up too at certain points. I looked at the pram and my baby was crying, looking very scared too. He calmed down after a few seconds of comforting but wanted to know if it’s normal for babies to...

My baby is 5 weeks old and I'm worrying about it a little as he is so placid. I know I shouldn't complain and I'm not but wondering if this is normal. He sleeps so much, only cries to be fed every 3-4 hours, and is happy lying on his sleepyhead looking at black and white mobile while awake. He's not clingy at all bu...

Mamas when did your baby start smiling ?? My baby is always frowning and hasn’t started smiling yet. He’s 7 weeks old and he’ll smile in his sleep but when he is awake he just stares at me and frowns. Sometimes he doesn’t even look at me I’ll hold him and talk to him and he’ll look around and not make eye contact wi...

Anyone else's little one not walking or standing on their own yet? He can pull up on furniture and walk that way and has for a while. But he can't/won't stand on his own. Recently, I noticed that 90% of the time, his feet are turned out. Has anyone else had this happen with their lo? I'm debating on if I need to tal...

My August baby has always had an independent streak, and has always been very engaged and wanting a lot of attention. She's very chatty, curious, and loves exploring. But lawwwd recently she is the most hyper and reactive I have EVER seen her. She's running up and down the hall over and over again laughing and yelli...

Hi, my daughter has recently been having really bad tantrums. Whenever we come home from outside, the park or just a walk, she starts screaming. She does not want to come home at all. Idk why I’ve tried everything, I’ll start the tv or give her a snack or try talking to her that we’ll go back later or tmrw but nothi...

My son is 14 months old and since last 2-3 months he has been extremely active like wouldn’t sit on bed for a second want to step down, wouldn’t want to be held and just crawl around or climb the stairs.. thats all he does the entire day. He would barely play with toys or anything, just throws them around so he can ...

My baby 6 months, grunts and strains making evil sounds. He's been experimenting with his voice and it was freaking me out at first. It's hard not to laugh. I know he's just playing with his voice, but wow some seriously creepy noises. I hope he doesn't keep it up at night while I'm asleep. 😭

If your baby was a late talker but now talks just fine when did he/she start talking? Around what age?

So my 22 m.o. has been hitting more and more recently. It started as just not being able to control himself to now what seems like a deliberate choice. I’ve been trying to teach him to use nice hands, and I know he knows how to do it, but now he’ll just hit while saying “nice”. What has helped your toddlers learn no...

Anybody else’s 1 year old touchy? When putting My son to sleep he constantly has to rub me. Is it a comfort thing?

Anyone else on here have a 4 year old who point blank refuses to listen, argues & answers back all the time my daughter will start school in sept & she is more than ready for it whether there ready for her is another question 😂 I thought the baby/toddler/2year old stage was hard but I’m finding this stage so much…

my boy is 1 month old today. today and yesterday i’ve been noticing him smile without gas. usually when we do arm exercises, bounces or when we lift him in the air a bit. could they be early social smiles? they usually say 6-12 weeks. just curious

10 month old still not crawling… first time mum and I’m worried. So many babies that are younger seem to be crawling already. When did your babies start?

My almost 28 month old has just started seeing a private SLP. She’s a very happy girl, uses the words she knows at home but has no context to them. I’m hoping once she gets more comfortable at the SLP’s she opens up more. This feels like it’s going to be a very long process to have her speak with purpose. I’m tryin...
