thats just it. it is ALWAYS his time. i only get time to do the things i need to do when he is napping or asleep for the night. he throws temper tantrums cuz i wont let him play or slam htings on our glass table in the living room. or when we are in public and he cant roam farther away from me than he would like. he will then throw himself on the ground and scream on top of his lungs. or when he doesnt want to go someplace or do something that we have to do. i think it is just the point that he has been so spoiled since he was born and now that he is getting a little bit older and is just used to having ALL the attention ALL the time. he is about to start in a daycare a couple days a week. so im hoping that being around other children his own age might help him with his tantrums.

The state of Tennessee will allow two mothers or two fathers to be on the birth certificate. . .when I had a partner our plan was to have a scheduled C-section or induction in TN because we live in AL. . .but now that I have no partner. . I don't have to do that extra traveling. . .Good Luck!

For anyone else that may be reading this and have the same question. . .the state of TN will allow both mothers to be on the birth certificate as well. . .I'm in AL and when I had a partner the plan was to go to TN for labor and delivery so both our names would be on the certificate. . .

persistence

dagnarus75 — Fri, 09 May 2008 09:47:00 -0700

that last one was from me (sorry i forgot to log in) ... persistence is probably the key then. if he starts again, if it were me, i'd probably just send him back to time out for another two minutes. and another, and another. or try to change the subject! if he is throwing a fit because he can't play with something, remove it from his sight and replace it with something that is ok for him to play with. after you let him out of time out, before he can start acting up again, try taking him to the park.

i would ask a different question.. why can't he do what he wants to do? is it a safety hazard? or is it just that he is trying to get your attention and you're trying to do something that involves you not paying attention to him? i *do* have trouble when i am trying to concentrate on something and he wants to get my attention over and over again - time out isn't a solution there because he's not really doing anything wrong, he just needs to "give me a break" for a couple minutes. if that's the case, you're just gonna have to give him what he wants - attention. i've discovered that there's a very good reason parents say that when they get time to themselves all they want to do is sleep.. it's because there's absolutely no such thing as time to yourself any more! it doesn't exist.

thanks for the advice, but

mommyzrus917 — Thu, 08 May 2008 14:22:08 -0700

thanks for the advice, but thats what i already do. i ignore him while he is screaming and dont let him know that i am even listening. but he still continues. and when his time out is up i explain to him why he was in time out in the first place..and give him a hug and a kiss. but two seconds later he will start all over again. i hear htis advice form everybody but it just doesnt seem to be owrking for my little toddler.

wow

First, keep time outs to one minuit of time out for every year of the childs age. (A 2 year old gets a 2 min time out). Second... Ignor him. He throws the tantrums and you put everything into stopping them... just walk away. If there is no one to "entertain" with the tantrum it will stop. Obvously, be within ear shot so you know that your child is safe and not crying out of pain or fear.
When my son calms down he comes to me for a hug and we talk about the situation. You will be surprised how fast a tantrum stops when it seems like no one is listening! Good luck!

We have both been pregnant and given birth and I went first. This 2nd time around, I knew exactly what my wife was going through and could validate her thoughts and feelings. I went to all her visits and made my self as much a part of the process as I could. I actually enjoyed (very much) not having to go through the aches and pains of the pregnancy (or the c-section at the end) and am planning to let her have our 3rd child even though I had planned all along to do it again.

2 moms on birth certificate

my2moms — Sat, 03 May 2008 13:23:05 -0700

Our first daughter was born in MA where we are legally married and we are both on her birth certificate. One as mother and one as second parent. With our newest daughter, she was born in ME where we are "roomates" so right now only the biological mom is on the birth certificate and the father space in blank. But we are in the process of a 2nd parent adoption (which have been legal here for less than a year) and then we will both be on the birth certificate!
