Hello my son is borne in Aug 2008 n he is more than 18 mths now. He starts to challenge me esp during meals time and nap time.
E.g. he knows how to hold the spoon but he always unwilling to hold it unless i told him loudly and insisted him to hold the spoon.
Another example is like today, he used to have a nap after lunch but todays he refuses and cried. I still insist him to take a nap and we battled for 1/2 hr and finally he fell asleep.
It's difficult to control my temper and i talked with loud and strong voice to let him know he must follow my instruction.
Do u encounter these problem? at first i always try to say softly to him but it does not work so finally i have to speak tough and loud.
Same thing here. I used to yell and scold him when my EQ become zero. But now, I would sing a song to distract his annoyance. Eg. Sing "time for nap, time for nap, time for nap, so toys away" (carrying him to the bed and put down his toy).
I always try to control my EQs as much as i can but u know sometimes it's really difficult.
Now when i feed him, i try to encourage him to hold the spoon (after i helped to put the rice on the spoon) to put the meals into his mouth. When he really dun wants to, then i feed to his mouth law......dun want to push him otherwise it will drive me crazy.
Don't be so sad la, the baby becomes cranky once in awhile also. I want to feed my son fast so I give him one small bowl for him to eat himself and I feed him another bowl but he always want to eat the bowl I hold also.
Sometimes he doesn't want to take nap also, then just let him play until he is sleepy or sleep earlier that night. Sometimes he can nap well for 2 hours if I sleep with him or he will wake up in 30 mins if he sleeps alone.
But my advise is don't yell at him. He will learn from you. He learns screaming from his younger sister who is 5 months old and scream when no one holding her.
My husband also always plays the role of bad guy and everything he said 'no no', and now he is not so close to my hus coz he always scold him but only stick to me.
Thks i would try to control my temper and do not yell at him (tho i lost my temper away today when he threw away the rice and spoon few times during lunch even i told him peacefully not to).
Previously my son used to sleep at 9pm everynite but starting from few wks ago, seems tat he does not want to sleep even after having his nite milk. He played around in his bed with his favourite cushion and sometimes even want to get out of the bed but i dun allow him to do so.........so he will cried n cried.
I still insist him to sleep at 9pm, am i doing right?? any opinion?? cos i think i should not let him to do watever he wants, he have to listen to me e.g. when it's time to go to bed or he has to sit properly when eating.
