Wild child

Where did my sweet little, cuddly, snugly boy go?! DS has turned into a WILD child. He is learning to crawl, so he doesn't want to be held. He wants to be on the floor...and he's all over the place, of course. If he lets you hold him, he wants to stand and jump or climb all over you and the chair you're sitting in. He fights naps like it's his job and he hasn't been sleeping well at night either. Holy balls, this is one tired mommy! I swear it's like he's entered the terrible twos! Whew!

I thinbk it's the age. Myh sweet little baby has turned into a screaming monster and such. It sucks, but whatever.

My LO is not crawling yet but she sure wants to.. She is always wanting to move. If shes on my lap she is moving everywhere. I kinda love it. I think its fun!

Same..Our DD (7 months)  is everywhere!  She crawls after the dog..our poor Yorkie is terrified of her..lol  She won't stay still at all.  She uses what ever is around her to try to stand including grabbing on to my hair!

Our DS was fighting sleeping hard-core, so we just put him in his crib tired but awake. Now he is able to put himself to sleep. I guess he wanted to roll around and find a comfortable spot. He didn't cry just some cooing. Maybe try that. Your little guy might just be looking for some independence. Good luck

Ok yeah DD is everywhere. She likes to crawl after and try to eat paper and when I take it away from her she screams.

Ahhh the paper is such an issue at my house too. One time I didn't get there in time and I had to pull the paper off of the roof of her mouth. That was fun. Not.

Oh yes, Hudson loves paper. We were visiting my parents and my mom was making a cake and gave DS the cake box to play with. He bit a chunk out of the box! My dad was holding him down and I had my finger in his mouth fishing it out. Nice move, Grammy, nice move!

We have had that procedure done at our house as well. It is no fun and I felt terrible she screamed like I was putting bamboo shoots under her fingernails.
