looking for some advice with regards to my 2 year olds behaviour and development. What is normal behaviour?! He has always been a very spirited baby/toddler and makes it very clear, very loudly, very regularly when he isn't happy! He is like Jekyll and Hyde and always has been. Happy one minute and miserable the next and many times we don't know why. He has recently become very clingy and wont let me go out of the room, often moaning and crying to be picked up all the time...which is hard going on the arms! We went today to a play date at a friends house and went into the garden to play but he just cried constantly to be picked up and wouldn't play. Yesterday we went to a local childrens farm and he looooves farm animals, but he moaned and threw himself on the floor crying most of the time and we couldn't work out why so had to head home. As soon as he was home he was instantly happy again!Is this normal? He tires very quickly yet gets 12 hours sleep a night and between 2-3 hours in the day. He is often yawning and doesn't care about walking much. I worry when I take him out as you never know when he will start whining and crying and throwing himself on the floor. Any advice welcome? I have no experience really of other two year olds apart from well behaved 2 year old girls we meet up with so not sure if I just need to ride it out and he will get better or if anything I need to check out about.
TIA
