Had a baby 12 days ago. My DD is tantruming about everything every hour and shouting no constantly. We had a tantrum for 40 minutes tonights. It's heart breaking and making me angry at the same time. She is so horrible when she is having the tantrum the growls the crying the throwing things the banging and the shouting no. When she is being nice she is so warm and lovely. She is also warm and affectionate to dd2 who is only 12 days old so I dint know if it's bringing New baby home or just terrible 2s, probably both. How do I handle tantrums?I usually count to 3 then remove her from situation in to the hall or into cot. Mostly the problems are getting dressed etc. Or just melt down fr
no reason her speech isn't awfully clear so that doesn't help. Tonight she had a tantrum for 40 minutes in the
hall I kept trying to give her cuddles eventually I left her until it calmed down sufficiently for me to explain that
New shoes had to go back to shop. It feels cruel
leaving her to cry such a heartbreaking cry for 49 mins.
Please tell me what to do and this is ok. Husband goes back to work tomorrow we have no family near by or
friends really. I'm on antibiotics fir infection in stitches
I'm low in iron and I've got thrush. How in earth am I
Going to cope?
