SON: He's been a bit clingy lately, so I've been focused on making time for him. If I forget, then he lets me know how unhappy he is!
DAUGHTER: She's taking her time with the potty training process, and it is a real drag!
-
5 AM wake-ups... Mama is tired!
-
Zuma: nothing. Ok so she occasionally bites my nipples. Ugh!
Pirate: he hates me I think. Up all night crying, up all day crying. He's getting 2 teeth in.
-
M: nursing to sleep. I hope he stops this soon.
D: listening skills.
-
A = cutting 3 molars, off and on fevers means sick days from daycare and time off of work
E = general Threenager issues. She's potty trained but doesn't like to stop what she's doing to go pee..... so many little wet accidents is getting frustrating
-
DD 4 months wont take a bottle anymore
-
@Dandelion: how old is LO that nurses to sleep
-
@FaithFertility: he's 12 and a half months.
-
Sleeeep. It's always sleep. But their sleep problems are tied to their GI issues with solid foods, so really food, too.
-
Being patient
-
Nothing major at the moment. We just struggled for MONTHS with A's behavior but the past week or two it has been awesome. Typical 2 year old stuff but holy crap has she had an attitude change lately. I think it helps we can get outside and have been doing different things.
-
@Dandelion: awwww I hope you can wean soon, I'm still nursing to sleep most of the time at 4 months
-
Learning to balance and manage the needs of a toddler and a newborn (DH goes back to work on Monday so God, give me strength and grace!).
On an individual basis, potty training is still a challenge for Miss A and she's still adjusting to life as a big sister. Little Dude is really only throwing up the usual newborn challenges - bf'ing, working out his cues and cries and night feeds.
-
Eating her dinner! I've been trying hard lately to plan and make meals that I think she'll love but then doesn't even try them.
-
Following directions the first time
-
Nothing huge really. Sort of having issues transitioning her to solid food, but she's not old enough its a real problem yet.
-
DD1 = The attitude and the emotions lately. I'm not sure if it's late terrible twos or early threenager antics but EEK.
DD2 = Sleep! She's waking at night and screaming with rage until she's held. For the rest of the night....which doesn't help with my patience level for DD1's testing me the following day.
-
I am avoiding potty training until June. Hopefully it goes smoother than I think. (DS)
(Dd) getting her out of a bed and into a crib.
-
She's slllowww (at eating, etc)
-
Bath time. This week he has had a meltdown every night not wanting to get in the bath. Tonight he happily went in and lasted maybe a minute and said he was done.
The other is crying if he doesn't get his way.
-
Naps, always naps
-
Eating...he is rejecting all of his previous favorites and thinks dropping all of his food on the floor for the dog to eat is completely hilarious. But we have been through worse food issues so I know we will get through it!
-
Night feedings and wakings, especially solo, M was just out of town for 3 nights.
-
Figuring out feelings - one day it's every two hours, another day it's every three, bottles aren't going over well. It's like once I figure it out it all changes . . .
-
DS: being 2.5...and everything that comes along with the emotions and tantrums.
DD: the sleep, oh the sleep. A night of only three wakeups is miraculous.
-
He is 13 months and he hits! And thinks it's funny.
-
K will NOT put on clothes. She screams and flails like crazy- it's a huge production to get her dressed. Exhausting.
-
Potty training for p.
Sleep for d -
Potty training and the whining/fussing for no reason with DD1.
Arching of the back tantrums, and a mischievous streak in DD2 that sees her always getting into things she shouldn't.
And overall, I am struggling with a lack of patience and an uncharacteristically short fuse right now (I think related to weaning - I hope so anyway, I hate being short tempered!)
-
Eating. Sleeping. Beginnings of tantrums. My kid's just all round challenging.
-
Trying to parent a sassy 2.5 year old when I'm constantly miserable with morning sickness.
-
LO is 7 months, and has been clingy the whole week when I bring her home from daycare. She used to love bath time, but now she is a screaming mess. At least she still sleeps at night.
-
The usual for a toddler still shy of two. Waiting. Accepting No. Requesting things, and then changing her mind, immediately. Kid, making you a sandwich on your request to have you then look at me and say, "No. Apple, peeeeeeeeeas?" Shsjsidgehsdreisbdbs.
-
Listening for my 2.5 year old. She has the most intense selective hearing in the universe!!! It's like talking to a brick wall most of the time and sooooo frustrating!!
-
Sleep. 7 month old DD is waking every 2 hours.
