When he's tired, he acts out the most. Most of his timeouts occur when he's tired.

They're very much alike already.

DS is really flexible and easygoing, so he just falls asleep wherever when he's tired! You don't even notice that he's knocked out because he doesn't fuss about it. irene on "How does your LO act when they're tired?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-does-your-lo-act-when-theyre-tired#post-1751607 Thu, 10 Jul 2014 21:00:40 +0000 irene 1751607@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Olive is so cute I always thought kids were supposed to be like that. Sigh. My LO cries like he was possessed. He does this twist and turn thing too, sometimes I can't even hold him down. It is especially tricky when I still try to make him take a bath. Sigh.

We call it wired and tired. But then eventually she will start crying and totally melt down.

My DS starts acting delirious.. like super amped up. He will dance around and flail his arms around. They stay up once in a while for special things but the next day is never pretty!

If he's sitting still or isn't occupied, he'll get fussy and start throwing his back backwards. coopsmama on "How does your LO act when they're tired?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-does-your-lo-act-when-theyre-tired#post-1749309 Thu, 10 Jul 2014 09:30:21 +0000 coopsmama 1749309@https://boards.hellobee.com/ He melts down and will usually start screaming. As soon as we put him in his crib he snuggles in and quiets right down. This boy loves his sleep! cmomma17 on "How does your LO act when they're tired?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-does-your-lo-act-when-theyre-tired#post-1749303 Thu, 10 Jul 2014 09:28:45 +0000 cmomma17 1749303@https://boards.hellobee.com/ @Mrs. Bee: like a terrorist.

She doesn't get grumpy or melt down though, which I am very happy about - she just turned 2. LO2 is five months and gets a bit whiny, mixed with lots of laughing, when she's overtired.

If we miss the window and she gets overtired then she is super cranky and whiny and cries a lot. sandy on "How does your LO act when they're tired?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-does-your-lo-act-when-theyre-tired#post-1749290 Thu, 10 Jul 2014 09:24:01 +0000 sandy 1749290@https://boards.hellobee.com/ LO can easily push back or skip her nap at this age with no problem. But on those days I can tell she's getting tired close to bedtime bc she kind of goes crazy - more excitable, can't calm down or slow down to listen, so distracted and just really wired. When she was younger she would cry at the smallest thing and so we'd know she was over tired...hasn't happened in months and months dolphin on "How does your LO act when they're tired?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-does-your-lo-act-when-theyre-tired#post-1749246 Thu, 10 Jul 2014 09:02:29 +0000 dolphin 1749246@https://boards.hellobee.com/ same as @NovBaby1112!

ETA- this is how she acts when she is at home with me...if we are out and about or around other people, she is distracted enough to not even act tired.

Olive on the other hand is such a trooper... maybe just used to being a second child who has to have a more flexible schedule. She usually just gets quiet and moves more slowly. We can push her nap back hours and she's usually fine until she passes out. How does your LO act when they're tired?
