He's 2. There's a lot going on, baby brother started crawling. He's started preschool two half days. He was poorly (3weeks ago) He's recently got back bottom.molars come through. Etc. He doesn't speak yet. I know, I know all this is the cause but Jesus bloody Christmas how on earth do you deal with it?
Up at 6.15. Came in bed with me and baby, OK, went down at 7. OK. Breakfast at half 7, starts screaming. Staying at parents which is frequent so that's not an upset. Refused to sit to eat breakfast and has screamed spotted and wailed ever since. I've picked up, cuddled etc. Put down if screaming (he understands nice cuddles/no screaming in mummy's ear) I've come upstairs to have a shower at 8 and he carried on the whole time. He's just stopped the last minute or two.
Usually we'd go for a walk but now he doesn't want to.hold hand/me hold reins/go in pushchair. He wants to walk on his own. Or else screams.
To clarify, he's complaining, loudly. Not crying as such.
Coping mechanisms?
