I worry about a small speech issue that we are working on. Also, she sucks her thumb so I worry what that will affect.
-
Loose concern but yeah. DD1, the snacking. and obsession w treats. DD2, speech.
-
LO1, his behavior in general...his lack of impulse control and difficulty dealing with frustration, and lately, explosive tantrums. Seems normal for his age (3) but has kind of come up in the last week or so (probably related to the new baby!).
-
@hilsy85: Sounds like new baby behavior to me!!
Not really concerns, just things I think of:
DS1 - snacking, not wanting full meals, being rough with baby brother
DS2 - speech....he doesn't really have words at 11m, but I'm not all that worried since his brother didn't talk much until 15 months.
-
DS- Not writing yet (he's 3)
DD- nothing -
I worry about her counting. I know she can count to 10. But regularly says 1,2,7,8,9,10,11.
-
DD1 will hold her bladder for too long and has only gone at school three times in two months. I know it will pass, but I'm worried she's doing damage to her body.
DD2 has rocketed through her milestones so I'm not worried about her at all.
-
@Smurfette: I think that's common.
-
@BandDmommy: That is what her teachers tell me. They say she does it right 75% of the time for us. But like 5% for us.
-
@BandDmommy: T can't write either. He scribbles and draws things but I have no idea what they are....
Oh, T doesn't actually know his letters yet.....I asked at his preschool conference about it and they said he's totally normal/ on track so I'm not really worried about that.
-
Not currently...which is weird to me since I've always worried about something. Speech just recently improved but that was probably my last big worry.
-
DD - was a late walker and still has a very "immature gait" and doesn't really run normally at 3 years. I have convinced myself over the years not to worry about it. Now her preschool teachers brought it up yesterday so of course I'm worried again!
DS - nothing big. He's slower in the language dept than M was, but she was a very early talker.
-
DD is almost 11 months!
Maybe standing unassisted?!? She can if she pulls herself up first then let'sgo and even is close to walking that way but if she sits and goes to stand she will lose balance quickly?!? -
@winniebee: really? That's good to hear...I was just worried because DD has been here for almost a month, but this behavior is only over the last week...and he is very good with her, and constantly saying how much he loves her, he kisses her all the time, etc. But i guess it's normal for behavior to become negative in other ways...?
-
@hilsy85: perfectly normal....bad behavior didn't set in for us until the newness of the baby wore off! And then....it came back with a fury once the baby was mobile!
-
Nothing too specific, but in general I worry that they are chronically overtired from bad sleep/multiple wake ups and aren't getting rested enough overnight to really be refreshed.
As Alice becomes more verbal, I do worry that she's talking too much for Blake and that he's going to lag behind in communication because of this. I think it can be somewhat common for twins to experience this. Not sure how to fix it, though, because I do want to encourage her talking!
-
@winniebee: oh ok great (well not great, but you know
).need to figure out how to deal with it now...!
-
One leg is shorter than the other. It's a wait and see situation for now.
-
Hand dominance. DS is almost three and while he primarily uses his left hand to eat, he switches back and forth when drawing or painting. I do worry it will affect his writing and other motor skills, and I read it can be an indicator of ADHD.
-
DD1: her digestive system, bowel movements in particular (sorry for the tmi). She's totally pee trained but doesn't do any big poos, just leaks little ones into her pants all day, every day. Almost like encopresis but as she's never been fully trained, it doesn't qualify as encopresis. I really worry about if we're screwing up her system and if we're ever going to get on track
DD2: nothing - she's smart as a whip and is knocking those developmental milestone out of the park at the very early end (speaking in full sentences, working on potty training, and dressing herself nearly independently at just turned 21 months old)
-
His addiction to milk in the MOTN. He's 2 and still randomly asks for it! I know he doesn't need it, but he refuses to go back to sleep till he gets some. If I don't give it to him, he'll cry till he throws up or if I hold him. Sigh.
-
His lack of listening skills. He's on the naughty side. Super happy and smart but he has a wild streak we cannot seem to curb.
).need to figure out how to deal with it now...!
