Hi I have a DD who has just finished to cut top 2 teeth so I know this is a funny old time, but she just seems to be unnaturally on the go. By this I mean she will not just sit and look at a toy for more that 3 seconds, she wants another one or to be picked up or to be taken here there and everywhere, up down and around the house.
We can't even hold her or sit her on our lap for 2 seconds without her literally wanting to climb over our heads, pull things over pull herself up to standing etc etc, Tbh she has always been a bit like this even as a newborn but now she is mobile, how do I put it, she seems hyperactive to me - she won't even listen to 4 words of a story before bed, she has discovered how to whine and really gets cross and tantrumy when things are not done quick enough and my Mum says she is so young for this. Is this just her personality? Or is there something I can do to calm her down, she is now starting to be like this during spells in the night and I am back at work P/T.
Does anyone have any words of wisdom for a totally knackered, demoralised 1st time Mum who isn't really enjoying her Baba at the moment!
