My son is 15 months and I would love sone advice on how to get him to stop using a pacifier and throwing fits. Thank you in advance
Fresh- I will disclaimer this by saying I am a firs time mom and my daughter is only 13 months...besides time out what have you tried? The things that I have found that work best to keep us all happy is to have a very predictable schedule (naps,bedtime,playtime) everything is about the same everyday and knowing what to expect keeps he happy. Also, maybe go to a playground or somewhere where he can run and get some of that excess energy out. Also....try not to let him notice if you are upset or frustrated, our children are very smart and pick up on things like that. Hope this helps & goof luck!!
How's your kid's first day/week of daycare or preschool? Please share! :)
