I too have a 2 yr old and currantly pregnant with my second. My son isn't completely like your but there are some things that are the same. My son doesn't eat alot but his doctor says that it is not my responsibility to make him eat it's just my responsibility to put things out for him to eat. He use to scream bloody murder at bathtime, not sure as to why but he now seems to be okay with it. The swimming pool is another story though. Brushing his teeth his teeth was a challenge. I actually went out and purchased him a kids Spin Brush toothbrush and although we still on occassion have some kicking and screaming we do get at least one day a week where I can brush his teeth with no problem at all. My son has never cut his hair but I can't even find where I put the scissors. Not sure about the talking though. And although my son will scream when I leave him with a grandparent (their usually my babysitter) he does cry a little but eventually he's fine.
Has their been any big changes recently? ↑ |
| My son just turned three, he loves baths, talks a lot, and allows us to brush his teeth. However, he gets into every thing we tell him not to, want sleep in his own bed and runs at diaper change. Yes, that's right he refuses to use the potty. Not to mention he has been a poor eater for the past two years. Hopefully he will grow out of this. ↑ |
| Since your son said some words in the past, you can be assured that he is capable of talking and this is just a period of him being stubborn - or being a 2-year old. The tantrums, the refusal to do what you say or ask is all because he started to realize that he is a separate person and wants to test his independence. This is normal. My daughter has just grown up from that period - around her turning 3 years old she suddenly changed to a most affectionate little girl. With boys (and with different children) the timing of stages could be different. My boy is 17 mo old but I think he can say less words than my daughter said at that age. He literally says only 3 other words than mum. ↑ |
