Hahahaha. I'm big on delayed gratification! </p> <p>@matador84: I wish I had done that too! I'll have to wait for the next baby to start that early, but hopefully if I start that now with DS, he'll get it? (Or become angrier? =P) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-55-month-old-is-impatient-and-fussy-when-he-doesnt-get-his-way#post-504542 Mon, 14 Jan 2013 22:28:33 +0000 matador84 504542@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DS is 5 months old and I have done the "no sir," "nuh-uh" since he was tinnnnny as kind of a joke and i swear now he obeys! ha! it is hilarious! he will start to cry or pout and i'm like no sir! and he quits everytime. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-55-month-old-is-impatient-and-fussy-when-he-doesnt-get-his-way#post-504533 Mon, 14 Jan 2013 22:24:46 +0000 sarac 504533@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Patience is waaaaay to much to expect at that age. I'd just do your thing in your time and let him have his feelings about it. Don't rush just to make him happy. If he's doing it while practicing sitting or tummy time, he might truly hate it and not be ready. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-55-month-old-is-impatient-and-fussy-when-he-doesnt-get-his-way#post-504436 Mon, 14 Jan 2013 21:24:28 +0000 cranberryapple 504436@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My LO isn't a super needy baby, but there are some times when he gets really fussy over not liking something. Sometimes, it seems like he's done with whatever I'm having him do, such as practicing sitting, or tummy time, and when he's nursing, if I don't shove the boob in his mouth real fast, he starts fussing big time over that! Now, is this the type of fussiness where I should just give in, or should I have him practice patience? I'm afraid he's gonna throw tantrums in the future (I kinda already consider these tantrums at the moment!) </p>
