do I have a psycho baby?

DH and I are wondering if it is normal that our DS #1- scratches at his face when he is infuriated & 2) scratches & swings at us when he is upset. Anyone else's baby's have tantrums like this???

Oh yes x100000.

Yes, it's normal, and no it's not "psycho". What terrible wording.

DD did that too but just recently stopped scratching her face, she would scratch the sh*t out of her face and I would get so upset.

I'm sure she didn't mean it like that though. She was probably looking at it in more of a joke?

DS claws at my neck and collarbone when he is tired. It hurts, and I can't seem to get his nails clipped to the point where it doesn't hurt.

Totally normal. Mine even managed to rip off my glasses!!

our LO does this too when he's overtired. now that he's getting into a nap/sleep schedule more, the boxing matches have lessened. Try putting on the outfits with the sleeve pockets that cover his hands.
