Baby Seems SOO Angry!

by Jessica k.

Here it is! ANGRY!

I have a thirteen and half month old son. He is my second son. He just seems to get angry so easy. This has been going on since he was 4 months old and has only gotten worse. He now hits the table and tries to knock over anything his little hand can reach when you tell him no, or when he just seems as if something in his little mind didn't go the way he wanted.

Sometimes he just walks up to me and is angry. And I don't even know why. And the part that is bothering me is, I cant seem to make him happy. If I pick him up and try and talk to him gently or make him laugh or distract him, he is still too mad and doesn't want to be distracted.

He will carry on sometimes hitting things and throwing his hands up and then falling to the ground. And the SHRIEKING! He just HAS to have everything go HIS way or he is mad mad mad. Maybe his problems sleeping could be related to this?

Is it just a personality thing or something else?

Baby Seems so Angry!
by: Baby Help Line

Babies who do not get enough sleep at night or do not take regular naps tend to be more irratable the next day. I know it is hard but try to have him on some type of sleep schdule. I know it is easier said then done. If you need to let your pediatrician know he is not sleeping well and maybe they can give you something to help.

When ever he is throwing a fit do not give him any attention. Let him calm down on his own. Babies get use to the attention they get when they throw a fit and they will keep doing it. I hope this helps a little.

Best Wishes to you and your family.

Fits
by: Anonymous

my mom had triplets 3 yrs ago November, and when they were about as old as your son, one of them would throw fits like yours, and roll on the floor screaming sometimes end up hitting his head on the wall, on his knees and pounding his hands on the floor... the only thing my mom could do was just put him in his room and let him go, she couldn't calm him down and maybe about a couple weeks to a month later he didn't really do it anymore.

i know its not saying much, but like the other person said on here, i think its because he was in his room alone, its the no attention, so theres no need to throw the fits like that.
