    *sigh* Right here with you hun.... Tanty, tanty, tanty. Going to eat breakfast? Tanty. Wiping his face? Tanty. Changing his nappy? Tanty. Brushing his hair? Tanty. You get the idea.

    Some days are worse than others. Today was a bad one. But I live in hope that tomorrow will be better

    Jesse started with the tanty's at 9 months old. They've only gotten worse & he's more clingy than ever.
    He will throw himself on the floor screaming & has started headbutting things. Won't take no for an answer & refuses to to sleep, lol!
    He is still having 2 sleeps a day for about 90 minutes - 2 hours each.

    lol... my 9 month old is already throwing tantrums when she doesnt get her own way or you tell her no. If you dont do what she wants, she'll scream at you too. If you are carrying her and go near the front or back door then walk away (because she wants to go outside) she will throw her head back and scream and carry on. If you the put her down she will throw herself down on the floor and carry on. Same goes for the bathroom.. she loves her bath! Also if i dont get her food to her fast enough, watch out. Little devil she is. But yeh just comes with kids unfort. DS started at about 16 months. He still has some but is quite good now at 2.5 years.

    Both these things are EXACTLY what I am dealing with atm. I just feel so unloved lol. I had a 'silent' tanti yesterday. You know the kind where your so angry you just go really quiet instead of screaming and whinging! Dp was so scared he did the dishes LOL it's taken me DAYS to try and clean my house because of her tantrums and being such a koala bear! I understand when she's teething but christ gimme some peace! Glad to see though I am not the only one who still has a bub that has 2 day sleeps. She gets up at like 5.30 and by 8am she's already cranky and wants a nap. She'll sleep for 1.5 hours, and then in the afternoon she has another 1.5 hour nap. So I guess it's just being a kid hey. Joys of parenting...

    Oh and Kellxx f.y.i Everytime I see your little one's name I smile. Because my dd is Ava and my SIL's baby is Keira

    Oh hun they all go through it. I know its hard to not take it personal or let it get to you but its just them discovering whats right and wrong really. If it gets too much for you just go and put her in her cot and close the door. Absolutely nothing wrong with that. Will give both of you a little time out. But she loves her mummy and needs you to guide her. It does get better. Sometimes it gets worse before it gets better, but keep consistant and you will see all your nuturing will pay off when they turn into a child who respects you. Im finding that now with DS. We have such a great bond. You are doing a great job ok

    Hehe great names! DH actually wanted Ava as a first name but i had my heart set on Keira ever since watching Xanadu. Funny thing though too.. we had Jayde as a middle name at one stage too. But we ended up changing our minds and loving Ava more
