Try and remember why she's tantruming (I have my own dictionary don't knock it). I know it sounds ridiculous but its communication frustration that in most cases causes it. I found talking about everything HEAPS. And practically being a mind reader help. Give lots of options and when she is tantruming keep talking even if your saying the same thing 10 different ways, once she feels heard, can get a hold of herself and see that its all ok she'll calm down... But she needs to feel heard first
hi...i have the same problem, it is reasuring to know that "your not the only one" and that many other toddlers go through the same thing. if im holding my little man and i put him down for whatever reason he will cry out, lay down, arch his back and have a wring! depending on his mood, it will be a struggle to put him in the high chair.
he has now started to want food (while in high chair) so i give it to him, he looks at it and then decides to put it on the floor!
its all apart of becoming his own person i guess and to have some sort of control over, (what we like to refer to) his world.
