Question

Answer

Where’s the 22-24 month old option? The thing I’m finding the hardest is when he can’t find the words to communicate. The 0-12months was easy peasy compared to trying to figure out if the noise he’s making that he thinks are words means he has to poop, needs a snack, a drink or he loves me.

Answer

I'm saying 9-12 
0-3 month was the easiest all she did was sleep, eat & shit.
9-12 shes walking, crawling, throwing fits and now refuses to sleep through the night. which is why I'm commenting at 3:57am

Answer

0-3 was legit the easiest months of all. Baby sleeps 18 + hrs a day. 
9-12– my son started walking at 9.5 months... by 10.5-11 he was climbing. Life was insanity. Haha and still is at 2.

Answer

So far 18 months is the hardest. She can climb and reach so much. She gets frustrated when she doesn’t have the words to tell us what she wants and she never sits still.

Answer

I thought 0-3 was super hard just because of the sleep deprivation and figuring out breastfeeding while trying to heal from giving birth. Everything after that seemed easy peasy although each stage did have its challenges.

Answer

3-6 months because it seemed like she was going through a sleep regression the entire time and was waking 3-5 times a night and barely napping so she was so grouchy all the time

Answer

0-3 months because he was in the NICU. The constant pumping was hard and the fact I stayed with him almost the entire month he was there was depressing af. Once he came home everything was smooth sailing

Answer

It was a mixture due to him being in the NICU for the first 5 weeks. Then he went back in few weeks later bc of an infection. After that he had alot of constipation spells and choking spells.

Answer

0-3months for us. Our daughter was born 2 months early. So she was pretty tiny, and with the added new parent lack of knowledge. It was just a lot of stress, worry and sleepless nights.

Answer

Our daughter is 18 months and there honestly haven't been any "challenging" age groups for us yet. I worked with infants and toddlers for 10 years prior to having her so I'm very comfortable and confident with this age group.
