I did for LO 1 but LO 2 is still a baby in my eyes! She isn't very mobile so I probably won't consider her a toddler until she crawls, scoots, walks or throws a ridiculous tantrum.

I didn't! O wasn't walking til 15+ months so I didn't consider her a toddler really til like..maybe 14 months earliest.
-
Hehe... I switch from infant to toddler whenever they start consistently walking on their own. And then of course the tantrums start... that's when I start labeling them as the "Terrible Twos" even if they're still one
-
I think a toddler is when they start "toddling"
-
Not really. She's almost 13 months, but she isn't walking. She just stood up on her own this morning.
-
D's 15 months but still not walking independntly. I still hestitate to call him a toddler.
-
My 13 month old can run, kick a ball, feed himself, climb stairs...and throw some serious tantrums. So yeah. He doesn't seem like a baby at all anymore. Makes me so sad. I thought I'd have longer.
-
Yep. At 12 months old, all of his toddlerisms emerged. He started walking, showing lots of independence, etc. He became a toddler right away then.
-
Regardless of what a 12 month old is doing it just seems so young to call them a toddler. Although I'm not really sure at what age I consider them toddlers.
-
I've always considered babies to be toddlers when they start walking. I see them still to be babies at a year, for the most part.
-
My LOs walked very early, so even though they were walking, they were still very much babies. I wouldn't call them toddlers until closer to a year when their personality is more prevalent, even though they had been walking for 3-5 months.
-
For DD1, yes became she had been walking for 2 months by the time she turned 1.
-
I'm in the toddling=toddlers school.
-
She'll always be a baby to me
she is ten months and walking on her own already...
-
Yep! Since she was already walking made it easier to think of her that way.
-
LO was an early walker so he was walking by the time he was 12 months, so I considered him a toddler.
-
No...he's walking and throwing mini tantrums, but he's still a baby to me. I think I won't consider him a true toddler until he's 18 months - two years old. I don't want to rush it!
-
@sotofamilia: I know what you mean. Even though he's 20 months old, there's still something about him that's a bit baby-ish. I can still pick him up. He can do two word sentences, but he has his own language for certain words. It still feels very baby to me.
-
I think of her as a toddler now because she's walking/ running, wanting to be independent with things and saying lots of words (as opposed to not saying any words
). She's 16 months. Prior to having kids though, I always thought of toddlers as being two!
-
I didn't. At 16 months, my son is still my baby!
-
I didn't really consider him a toddler til he started walking at 14 mos
-
LO is 14 months and not walking so despite her tantrums she's still my baby.
-
LO was racing around the house at 12 months so yes, I started calling him a toddler. But he'll always be my baby...
-
At 12mths she toddles around all day and I had to buy the 'toddler' size diapers so yep!
-
Yes. They started walking at 11 months.
