When did the terrible twos end with your child?

[rootsandwings89]

Just that really. Our lovely little baby boy has recently turned into a horror over the last few weeks. He turns 2 at the beginning of March.

My DD is 7 and really struggling with his behaviour and said she feels he takes all our attention now, which he does. We're currently away for half term and wish we hadn't bothered, he runs around, screams, shouts, throws food, climbs everything, won't sleep. We will probably end up going home early as we're finding it too difficult and are just stressed :(

Anyway, we know what we are in for but wandered if there's a pattern how long people found this phase lasted?

That sounds a little more than the terrible twos, has he always had problems with sleep? Does he go to Childcare and how is he there?

When she was about 15

No his sleep is normally fine, it's because we are away on "holiday". He started nursery twice a week in January and they've never said they have concerns

Please don't get me wrong, he is such a lovely lad, mostly smiley and laughing etc. but we've definitely noticed the difference in his behaviour

Oh OP that is hard, particularly as you have a DD as well. How is his speech / understanding?

He's 4 and he's still going. 3 was worst age for all of mine.
