Help! Ds has started to hit
Ds has just turned 16 months and has recently started hitting (well it's more like a pathetic swat). He's seen other babies doing this at mothers group so I'm guessing that's where he picked it up. I had to leave gymboree today half way through as he would hit any child that came near him then had a meltdown when I moved him away. Ds1 was never a hitter so not sure what the best strategy is. Right now I'm telling him no and to be gentle, showing him how even though he knows, then ignoring him for a little while. Anyone else dealing with this or have any advice?

Thanks for replying! I'm glad my ds isn't the only one. He's sick at the moment so I know that isn't helping. I think I will start time outs with him too. Ds1 was 18 months when we started, but I think it's time for ds2 to start learning what's not acceptable. I really don't want my ds to be THAT child so need to nip this in the bud ASAP.
We have the same problem. If ds gets tired he will hit (obviously it doesn't hurt, but not a behaviour that is acceptable).
I give him time out if he's just in a silly mood and hitting, and have stopped playing certain games for a while- like playing the drums on the kitchen pots, because he seems to hit more if he's been doing something like that. I also tell him gentle and no and show him how to be gentle.
But would love any other advice ppl have!
So over this feeling!
Ever since I've had ds, OH and I have fought my mother on not wanting to give ds a dummy just cause we don't like them and find he self soothes. For the past three times my mother has had him, she has gone against our rule and given him a dummy and of course I spoke to her about it (that's all my knowledge on how many times she's done it). On Sunday we celebrated my stepfathers birthday and due to OH working I had to do it alone which isn't the thing that bothered me. The...
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
Trigger. Lost baby
Went in for my 20 week check up and found out our son had passed away. Nothing was wrong, my pregnancy has been going great. I'm so numb right now. I'll he delivering him later this week. I don't want to do this. I don't want to do this. Not before Christmas. How am I'm going to tell my kids?? My dear sweet baby boy. Why did this happen?
I have been trying so hard to be calm, and nice. This morning though, my fiancès son decided to spit at me and hit me. This is constant with the hitting, the spitting is new. We've both tried sitting and talking to him, time outs, cry it out, try to avoid spanking as much as possible but it has happened. No form of discipline works with him. He hits me, he hits his dad, he hits my son. I'm so afraid of what's going to happen come May when the baby is born. Is he going to try and hurt our baby? W...
Who else has financial issues within their relationship?? Or am I just lucky 🙄🙄
Not sure if I'm being just mean or what. But my SO used $160 from me this morning. I gave him my bank card because he needed $60 to get material for work. His boss was going to give it back to him at the end of the day. So instead of $60 he took out $160. Which I was a little pissed. (One of the reasons I just can't let him use my card. I have to go get the money from the atm myself if I'm giving it to him) then, to...
Haha our only problem with time outs is my ds loves them! We put him in his room (the only place we can put him) and he just gets a book off his shelve and sits in the chair and "reads" it. Then if you take him out of time out- half the time he goes back into his room and closes the door! Aside from removing every piece of furniture and book from his room- I need to rethink his discipline :)
