My ds seems to have days (today being one of them) where he is constantly frantic. It's hard to describe. He's just trying to get somewhere ALL the time, he won't sit still for a second, and is more often than not moaning, grunting, making typically "over tired" sounds. I try to move him to where he wants to be but he doesn't stop fussing. I play with him, give him quiet time, put him in different rooms, different positions with different toys. It's just exhausting. The second I put him down unattended, he's unhappy. The second I pick him up he's physically struggling
thankfully this isn't constant, he will lie happily in pram on long walks, has definitely had sufficient naps today.
I just feel a little overwhelmed that I'm doing something wrong or not doing something right. I feel that I should be able to leave him for more than 2 minutes alone. It's really draining. He's just so hyperactive today!
He's EBF, just started weaning. Generally a bright little boy, rolls into his front (though stopped this recently) and has good core strength though nowhere near sitting yet.
Is he just frustrated because he can't move around yet? Is he having a leap? Or am I creating a little monster by attending to him literally every second of the day? Please tell me that this isn't uncommon!
