My DD is almost six months old and since I can remember, everytime after her bedtime bath she whinges and cries and throws an absolute tantrum as we dry her and clothe her! Luckily there's one particular song that seems to stop her going into all out meltdown but just wanted to know is this normal?! Every single night it's like this and I dread bedtime!
I'm starting to think she may also be different to most babies. When I go to classes or meet other mums for coffee my DD is so needy compared to all other babies. She is absolutely hyper! Needs 100% attention (maybe I've spoiled her with doting on her at home?). In classes other babies just lie there but my DD gets bored, needs picking up, bouncing , whatever.
She's 110mph whenever she's awake. When we went for a long walk in the sling/ carrier for an hour earlier in the week she talked/ babbled for the duration, it was lovely, but it's an example of her just never seeming to switch off and chill. Even on the playmat at home she has her matchstick monkey in her mouth babbling non stop and rolling over the length of the room!
Normal? She's my first....you can probably tell!
