Ever since she turned one, LO's been a tantrum machine. i have a feeling we're in for a long couple of years if supposedly the 2s and 3s get worse. and to think i used to be proud of her "independent" streak ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-your-lo-gotten-feisty-once-they-turned-1#post-773461 Fri, 10 May 2013 12:50:17 +0000 bpcmarj 773461@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@littlek: P also does the arch back and dive move, happy or mad, and it's new to this last week or so (she was 1 on the 7th). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-your-lo-gotten-feisty-once-they-turned-1#post-773449 Fri, 10 May 2013 12:44:10 +0000 littlek 773449@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrsjazz: That's hilarious<br /> @winniebee: that is too funny. Sometimes, I have to remember not to laugh when B is being bad, even though it can be hilarious. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-your-lo-gotten-feisty-once-they-turned-1#post-773447 Fri, 10 May 2013 12:43:38 +0000 dookie32 773447@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Good Lord yes. He really turns on a dime- one minute smiling and laughing, next minute- full blown meltdown. This week it's mostly been before bed (he wants to keep playing) or getting dressed in the morning (we have to do a lot of creams for his eczema and he is not having any of it). The best was when there was no more roasted squash at dinnertime- OMG the tears! I feel better knowing it's not just us! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-your-lo-gotten-feisty-once-they-turned-1#post-773422 Fri, 10 May 2013 12:31:26 +0000 mrs. tictactoe 773422@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh yes. I'm glad we're not alone! I was worried he was starting this too early, too, but now I'm just scared for the 2s and 3s!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-your-lo-gotten-feisty-once-they-turned-1#post-773418 Fri, 10 May 2013 12:29:19 +0000 winniebee 773418@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrsjazz: no dog! i have no idea where he got it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-your-lo-gotten-feisty-once-they-turned-1#post-773415 Fri, 10 May 2013 12:28:32 +0000 mrsjazz 773415@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@winniebee: Hahaha. He growled! Do you have a dog that he could learn that from? Sometimes I don't know where/how these kids come up with these things. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-your-lo-gotten-feisty-once-they-turned-1#post-773407 Fri, 10 May 2013 12:26:10 +0000 winniebee 773407@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrsjazz: hahahaha!</p> <p>The other day T was spitting out water from his sippy cup like a fountain so I tried to take it away and said "NO." He just held onto it as hard as he could so we were playing tug of war with the cup and then he growled at me. My husband started laughing! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-your-lo-gotten-feisty-once-they-turned-1#post-773404 Fri, 10 May 2013 12:21:52 +0000 mrsjazz 773404@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>She was always just a little feisty, but now it's her way or she definitely lets us know she's not happy--either by crying, by pushing us away, by throwing things, and even by "fighting." It's so bad because when she tries to fight, it looks like girl fighting when girls just wave their arms around in front of each other. I have to stifle my laughter. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-your-lo-gotten-feisty-once-they-turned-1#post-773398 Fri, 10 May 2013 12:17:24 +0000 Mrs. Grizzly Bear 773398@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>15 months old and he's the king of meltdowns and tantrums. He's such a little drama queen! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-your-lo-gotten-feisty-once-they-turned-1#post-773389 Fri, 10 May 2013 12:14:48 +0000 Weagle 773389@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh my word, yes. Absolutely. We literally just left a restaurant due to a tantrum. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-your-lo-gotten-feisty-once-they-turned-1#post-773297 Fri, 10 May 2013 11:31:22 +0000 Springtime 773297@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh yes, ever since my LO turned 1 he throws full on tantrums when he doesn't get what he wants or we take something away from him! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-your-lo-gotten-feisty-once-they-turned-1#post-773288 Fri, 10 May 2013 11:29:53 +0000 yellowbird 773288@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My LO is only 8 months, but she's always been feisty! I have a feeling I'm in for it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-your-lo-gotten-feisty-once-they-turned-1#post-773267 Fri, 10 May 2013 11:19:54 +0000 BananaPancakes 773267@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh yeah. He literally turned 1 and went from a sweet happy baby to a little monster some days. I think his brain is just further along than his body at this point and he's getting frustrated easily now. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-your-lo-gotten-feisty-once-they-turned-1#post-773253 Fri, 10 May 2013 11:12:56 +0000 littlek 773253@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@KT326: That's great! The only problem is the things B want, he can't have. Ex: Opening and closing doors is so much fun in his book, but I won't let him do it because he will catch his fingers in the door. Or play with electrical cords. Or climb in Daddy's vanity and remove all the items. I'm such a mean mommy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-your-lo-gotten-feisty-once-they-turned-1#post-773247 Fri, 10 May 2013 11:08:12 +0000 KT326 773247@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yup. He knows what he wants but can't express it yet. Cue screaming and flailing on the floor. I'm getting better at deciphering what he wants and can usually cut it off pretty quickly, sometimes even avoiding the screaming altogether. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-your-lo-gotten-feisty-once-they-turned-1#post-773244 Fri, 10 May 2013 11:06:50 +0000 kiddosc 773244@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ooh, I can hop on the tantrum train with you ladies. Suddenly E has lots of opinions, very strong ones! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-your-lo-gotten-feisty-once-they-turned-1#post-773239 Fri, 10 May 2013 11:04:55 +0000 winniebee 773239@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@littlek: LOL. We had a thrashing, arching, flailing episode when he didn't want to leave the park the other day. Uh oh. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-your-lo-gotten-feisty-once-they-turned-1#post-773227 Fri, 10 May 2013 11:01:50 +0000 littlek 773227@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@winniebee: B does this thing where he arches his back and throws himself backwards. He does it when he's really happy or mad. This morning it was because he was mad. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-your-lo-gotten-feisty-once-they-turned-1#post-773218 Fri, 10 May 2013 10:59:09 +0000 winniebee 773218@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh yeah. We've had some full on tantrums lately. T has always been a little feisty! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-your-lo-gotten-feisty-once-they-turned-1#post-773212 Fri, 10 May 2013 10:56:39 +0000 littlek 773212@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO is almost 1 and he definitely has a lot more attitude now. I was getting ready this morning for work and letting him crawl/cruise around the bathroom. He tried to crawl into DHs vanity and when I pulled him out he had a mini tantrum.. what the what?? I thought that would happen later. Has anyone else noticed their LO becoming stronger willed? Feisty? Opionated? </p>
