Stroppy 13-month-old

Just as we get DS into a good evening routine, and are making some headway with eating meals nicely, he has his 12-month injections and everything seems to have gone to pot since! Evenings and mealtimes are a battle. He cries and tries to flip over and crawl away during nappy and clothes changes. He won't stay still long enough for a bedtime story. He refuses food or throws it around, even if he's hardly eaten all day and must be hungry and it's something he used to like. He cries to be let out of the pushchair and goes rigid when you try to put him back in. He's ignoring his toys and just wants to be climbing over me or the furniture. His sleeping which was never great has taken a nosedive, and when he wakes up it's only me he wants, not DH. What do you think? Completely normal developmental phase for this age? Ongoing reaction to injections? Or am I doing something wrong somewhere?? So exhausted and worried.

Not stroppy save that phrase for when he is a teenager Grin
Frustrated probably my D S was like this just before he started walking

My boy has been horrendous for the last few weeks. Then he learnt to walk all of a sudden. And touch wood we seem to be coming out the other side. I know learning to walk can make them incredibly frustrated and really bad at sleeping and settling as it is literally all they can think about.
