Hi everyone,

I'm at an absolute loss at what to do with my DS.

He's just discovered he's got a voice (and a high pitched one at that) and there are times where he will just randomly scream in a high pitched voice. There are times when he does it out of excitement when he's playing, but he also does it randomly. It's like his new form of communication?! He doesn't this all the time except for in the morning when he coos and gaas alot. I don't talk to him in a high pitched voice and I don't exactly have a high pitched voice either so I don't know where he's getting it from?!

Is this normal? Can this be controlled? I'm afraid if we continue letting him scream like this, he'll constantly scream for us this way wherever we go - shopping centres, church, etc. The last thing I want is for a child to start chucking tantrums in the form of screaming so I'm hoping to break this habit and control it now.

Any suggestions or advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!! xoxoxo
