Any temper tantrums?

Question

Hey moms! So our little girl just turned 8 months and her temper is starting to peek out! Every now and then she will get so mad and pitch a fit! It is literally so funny and I ant help but laugh even though I shouldn't!!! Anyway, we are trying to figure out the best thing to do....Should we ignore it? Set her down and walk away? Hmmm...What do y'all think?

Answer

Up until a certain age I'll describe them as being "Emotionally Unstable" Lol this is why when you see children flipping out at the grocery store the mom always has that certain look on their face. Basically from now until about 3-4 you can pretty much look forward to a lot more of these tantrums. Not because your child is "spoiled" or bad, and I'm not saying to pamper and give in every time baby doesn't get his/her way but give in a little (they'll only be that little once)... in my opinion just roll with the punches. You have to teach them to calm themselves sorta. They're easily distracted at this age so that tantrum that starts because of the one item that you take away from baby that shouldn't be in reach, can easily be over by picking them up or showing them something else to get their minds off of what they were upset about . Eventually you'll have to buckle down on them a little when the Terrible 2's, tantrum 3's, and fiendish 4's come or they will be ruined forever lol jk 😂😂😂

Hope this helps! Sorry if I 'talked' in circles.

I have an 8 month old girl and she has an attitude as well! Every time I start to eat she wants some and of course she can't have any because she has no teeth but she gets SO pissed and acts like a demon child and it's not the only thing she throws a fit over 😂
