And I mean banshee scream followed by sitting/lying on the floor and crying and sometimes forcing screams.
He has started crying as soon as he doesn't gets what he wants and how he wants it e.g. I would always prepare him a snack in the kitchen take and he'd come with me to the lounge where we'd put it on the table sit him on his little chair and he'd snack away, today I put some blueberries in a bowl for him and said 'come on DS lets take these into the lounge for you' and as I took a step towards the room he screamed threw himself on the floor and cried + refused to get picked up.
Earlier he had a tantrum because I wouldn't let him pinch my face, yesterday he screamed and arched his back and would not be consoled as DP was cuddling him (DS cuddles a lot after his afternoon nap) and he sat down on the sofa with him as he was getting heavy. Again not long ago he started throwing a wooden toy at my face, when I said no he kept laughing and doing it even more, when I took the toy away he tantrumed again.
Just now he was pointing to the snack cupboard, I took out a flapjack and showed it to him and said 'would you like a flapjack DS?' he nodded so I unwrapped it and passed it to him and instead of taking it he threw another tantrum.
Am I doing something wrong? I'm open to suggestions!
Also this past week his routine has changed a bit as I work afternoons so he's at his grandmas for about 1-2 hrs a day before DP picks him up .
