Ok, My daughter is a SUPER stubborn almost 4. Usually she's a pretty decent little kid, but when necessary we've been using the suppernanny time out technique. It works GREAT! But… 9 times out of 10 when time is up she refuses to come out. Then what do we do. We don't want to start a new argument now that she's done her time.

My 3mth old hates being on her tummy and im worried that this will delay her neck muscle development. She can hold her head whilst being cuddled but not when in a bouncer or bumbo seat etc.

Hello….i am a first time poster here….my 18 month old daughter, cali, nurses to sleep at naps and bedtime. She is exclusively breastfed and has never taken a bottle, but will use a sippy cup now….just won't drink milk at all. i have become her human pacifier to be able to fall asleep and stay asleep. dad can occasionally rock her back to sleep, but she can not ease herself back into sleep on her own. i have started taking a birth control pill that will stop my milk supply also, so i am in the process of needing to gently wean and help her sleep on her own. i am not a fan of crying it out either, but would like some ideas on how to go about this transition to make it as easy as possible for her. PLEASE HELP!!!

I dont know if my sons not old enough, he's just turned 16 months old and shows absolutelty no interest in using cutlery. Over the last 6 months Ive tried showing him how to use it, to just leaving him to work it out for himself. I wonder if theres something Im not doing right, he's my first child so I feel like Im making things up as I go along. Also I was wondering what age you generally move babies from a cot to a bed, I know it seems a stupid question but I really have no idea

Hello ladies,
While this might be my first post here, I've been a long time fan/watcher of Jo. And, in my quest for advice about my son, I found this site and really hope someone might have some suggestions.
Lately, I've been asking my son to read a book to me (instead of the other way around) once a day. He gets to choose which one he reads off a particular shelf, we sit together and he does really well.

Sometimes he's a gem, other times he is just plain horrid … screaming, kicking and occasionally if I get my face or fingers too close – biting. Does anyone have any tips??
I try really hard not to shout & yell and speak in a firm, calm voice telling him not to do it, but find that really hard some days. I have even thought of putting him on his naughty spot when we get home, but that the time lapse in between doing the naughty thing & punishment would be too long.
Would appreciate any help or ideas.

My child won't drink from sippy cup or cup…just won't really take up the practice of drinking liquids all day long. If I want the fluid to get into her body I have to go to her with a cup and say, Ok, drink the juice or the milk… I am always concerned about her getting enough fluids as she just won't take up the "constant sipping" practice. I see other kids just going back to their little cups all day long, but not my child.
What can I try to help with this issue?

My 3 1/2 month old daughter is
(a) a cat napper – she naps for 3-4 30 minute naps daily and everything I have done to lengthen these naps, has failed miserably. Whether she is in her swing, on my lap, in her crib or in her stroller being moved around she will still wake up after 30 – 40 minutes.

Hi,
I'm a Mom of 18 month old twins. My son has a habit of pulling my daughters hair for no reason. When he goes to do it I know he knows what he is doing because he is looking right at me and my husband and waiting for a response. We tried to talk to him (not sure if there is much to reason with and 18 month old but we tried) we tried to put him the pack and play for a little time out and then spoke to him after.

Need some help, we are expecting a baby in 5 months and have moved our 3 year old to a new room, as the nursery will be for the baby. He has the same bed and bedding, yet his room is not attached to ours anymore it is on the 1st level and is much larger. It has been 4 nights and it is a fight and cry out every night…we have trouble getting him to go to sleep and then he is up anywhere from 3am-5am at our bedside refusing to got back to his room. We have tried a few things with no success, any good ideas? We are all very tired, including my 3 year old…I feel like I have a newborn again, already!
