We try to limit to sleeping and car rides, but we have to hide them throughout the day. If she sees one and we don't give it to her, she freaks out. I'm not too concerned at her current age, but I have a feeling this will be a struggle.</p> <p>Other issues:</p> <p>Sleeping - struggling since we got back from vacation where we had to co sleep and won't sleep for more than an hour or two unless someone is next to her....</p> <p>Climbing - she just started walking a month ago and now climbs on everything. I turn my head for two seconds and she has climbed up in her high chair.</p> <p>Overall she is so much fun and laughs and giggles all the time and I wouldn't trade it for the world :). Who needs sleep anyways? :/ </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-parenting-issues-are-on-your-mind-right-now#post-1841503 Thu, 28 Aug 2014 22:03:24 +0000 fairy 1841503@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My LO (14 months) used to nurse to sleep easily and then I would transfer her to her crib. But the past week and a half or so, she ALWAYS wakes up once she hits the crib for naps and will cry/whine for 2-4 minutes and then flop down and sleep (sometimes waking again and crying another minute before flopping back down) when she used to sleep for like 2hrs straight. It just makes me feel like crap because I cannot just hold her for naps and she sleeps so much better in her crib, but the crying just kills me. :/ Hoping it's just a part of the "wonder week" she's in and she goes back to normal soon. She has also been cranky/teething and that makes me feel like she is cranky because I didn't hold her for her naps.. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-parenting-issues-are-on-your-mind-right-now#post-1841481 Thu, 28 Aug 2014 21:51:16 +0000 yerpie110 1841481@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Language development </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-parenting-issues-are-on-your-mind-right-now#post-1841413 Thu, 28 Aug 2014 20:58:41 +0000 Smurfette 1841413@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Language development<br /> Pickiness with food </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-parenting-issues-are-on-your-mind-right-now#post-1841393 Thu, 28 Aug 2014 20:47:00 +0000 rattles 1841393@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Transitions: helping her adjust to a new baby and a cross country move within a month of each other</p> <p>Language: working on speech with her while there will be a gap in her EI/speech therapy</p> <p>Discipline and tantrums: coming into the terrible twos and needing to figure out how to handle things consistently while in 3rd tri fatigue </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-parenting-issues-are-on-your-mind-right-now#post-1841365 Thu, 28 Aug 2014 20:35:06 +0000 Boogs 1841365@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Feeding himself and getting him to eat more veggies. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-parenting-issues-are-on-your-mind-right-now#post-1841351 Thu, 28 Aug 2014 20:30:05 +0000 lilteacherbee 1841351@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Teething </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-parenting-issues-are-on-your-mind-right-now#post-1841328 Thu, 28 Aug 2014 20:22:14 +0000 Mrs. Champagne 1841328@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Naps :crying: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-parenting-issues-are-on-your-mind-right-now#post-1841294 Thu, 28 Aug 2014 20:09:32 +0000 sandy 1841294@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>General discipline - she is still generally so good but she is in such a contrary phase right now. Everything is "not x"... I'll say "You are such a good friend!" And she'll say "I not a good friend!"</p> <p>Also, she is in a phase of not liking kids she doesn't know. She used to be so good at sharing and being kind with everyone but now she glares at other kids and wants them to go away. And if they get in her space she will push. She's not aggressive but it's still so embarrassing to see her try and move another kid away or to move her body so the other kid is getting kind of pushed out of the area. Not fun :-/ </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-parenting-issues-are-on-your-mind-right-now#post-1841187 Thu, 28 Aug 2014 19:14:01 +0000 hilsy85 1841187@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@yoursilverlining: noooo don't tell me this doesn't happen!

Always the grandparents. As in, they have no respect for our choices. Just one example: we told them we didn't want LO watching TV before the age of 2 (she's 8 months old). We have since found out that they sit her in front of Disney Junior every time we leave her with them. What can we do except supervise her visits (which itself would cause WWIII)? :/ </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-parenting-issues-are-on-your-mind-right-now#post-1841010 Thu, 28 Aug 2014 17:47:32 +0000 yellowbird 1841010@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Discipline/boundaries and dealing with tantrums! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-parenting-issues-are-on-your-mind-right-now#post-1840999 Thu, 28 Aug 2014 17:16:09 +0000 misstatas 1840999@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Sleeping and possibly teethIing already at 4 months.
