    Hugs hon, you are not a bad mum!!!! My DD is 13 months, so I'm sure this is coming up to me too, but she has her days! She's definately protesting against the word "NO" right now!

    I know that Im late reading this, but my 14 month old did exactly the same thing for about 3 weeks and it was just SO tiresome. He shrieked and whined ALL day and he wouldn't even let me hug him. Then it got remarkably worse - then one day, pop a molar tooth plus a change of sleep cycle - turns out he wanted to go from 2 to 1 sleep per day. It was HELL and then it got better. Stay strong, it will pass.

    14 months is such a difficult age for kids i reckon. They are old enough to know what they want and what they don't want but haven't quite got the communication skills. The result is generally a lot of whinging! My 14 month old is doing exactly the same thing. It was about this age that i started using a bit of sign language with DD1, we just used a few basic things like food, drink, nappy change and finished. That way i was helping her to communicate and she didn't need to whinge as much to get her point across. I've just started with DD2.

    All kids whinge, but with my 2 i find this age particularly, involves a lot of whinging! It will get better.

    Ohhhh, this is just like my nearly 14 month old and it's been a shock to the system, as our first was and is such an easy child...

    I was a bit worried about it too, but now thanks to your posts I feel better!

    Mine is not walking yet, so may be adding to his frustration?
