My 2yo son has always been a sensitive little soul - he hated going to baby groups or anything involving other people when he was little and has always been happiest at home. He goes to nursery 1 day a week (I am on mat leave) and is pretty settled there, though that has taken a long time.
He has the usual toddler upsets over wanting things his own way but he really struggles to calm himself down or be calmed down after. Today for example he woke up after a nap, and got upset about being awake. It took over half an hour for him to stop crying. He just wanted to curl up on my lap.
I just wonder if it is normal to get so upset for so long quite frequently, and if anyone has any tips to calm him down? His little friends seem to be more even tempered, though I'm sure they have their moments.
