Two posts for today...must mean we are entering a new phase 
Gabrielle is 16mths and has just started to do a full-on high pitched screech when she wants something. I just stay calm and wait until she is done. Occassionally I ask her to stop and she does. Is there anything else I can do help this stage along? ------------- Mummy to Gabrielle and Ashley |

Can't say with this one as Andrew never did it but it would have to be damn annoying for you. ------------- I was a puree feeder, forward facing, cot sleeping, pram pushing kind of Mum... and my kids survived! |

It is essentially a tantrum...the feet stomp, she turns red and screeches. Oh the joys of having such an assertive and strong willed child! With a quiet introverted mother LOL LOL. ------------- Mummy to Gabrielle and Ashley |

I would ignore it and turn your back. Then once she stops, start again by giving her what she wanted/asking what she wants/or saying no lol!!! ------------- Kelly, mum to DD, 19Jun06 (26wks 1lb15oz) DS1, 24Oct10 (32wks 4lb11oz) and DS2, 31Dec11 (32wks, 4lb11) http://lilypie.com">
