Complete change

Has anyone else’s little one completely changed over the last few months? Not to be dramatic but I feel like someone’s snook in during the night and swapped my sweet quiet boy for a little demon child lol 😂 We’ve always joked about my LO being the “perfect baby” because since pretty much straight away he’s sleep through the night, never been poorly, never had sleep regression or teething symptoms, Weened really easy and ate everything, happily plays by himself and doesn’t cry or be clingy. But recently that’s COMPLETELY changed! All of a sudden he screams and cry’s at everything, throws things at me if I say no, has started smacking me and when I say that’s naughty he calls me a “bad boy” 😐 he is constantly pulling at me and never lets be move without a whole breakdown and tantrum. Bedtime doesn’t exist anymore and dinner time seems to have turned into a food fight episode. All jokes aside it’s actually really tiring, do you guys think it’s a late regression or just a tantrum stage? Fingers crossed it passes by quickly!

There's a leap at this age, if you haven't already, have a look at the wonder weeks app, it's so helpful and tells you when "Stormy time" is, it's reassuring telling you about their development but also fills you with dread when you know a new leap is approaching haha x

@Penny oh gosh thank you for letting me know I’m definitely going to take a look! X

You have literally described my child!! I’ve just changed him for bed and he cried that hard he nearly vomited! Where’s my happy baby gone?? He’s at a stage where he’s pulling my face and hair and it HURTS! He only wants me too. Won’t even sit on his dad without screaming! Hoping this stage passes fast!! Xx

I could have written this myself. I don’t use this app very often but came on searching for posts like this! So clingy, miserable, separation anxiety driven, and night times… well don’t even go there. X
