Kicking and screaming, flailing and crying. Every little thing or nothing triggers a full blown uncontrollable meltdown. Feels like terrible twos started early for my 19 months old little one.
Sometimes a little soothing and talking can help her calm down. Sometimes she is able to calm herself down. But most of the time she is unconsolable. Throwing herself on to the floor, or throwing herself back into her chair.........because we didn't know what she wanted.
She hasn't tried pointing or asking for things she wants yet, she screams instead of trying to speak. It's a endless game of guessing till we get it right. This mama is trying very hard to fit to her little ones frequency to help teach her some patience.
Time out doesn't work most of the time as meltdowns, her emotions escalates too quickly for us to keep up. We are trying our best to disiplin her. Is she too young for us to introduce punishment? Would we be too harsh if we start using force?
This mama needs a break. This mama needs some advice.....
