What Do You Suggest For Head Butting Of A Baby?
Hi, I have a 19th month old son. He has justed started head butting in the last two weeks. I am very concerned. He goes to day care 5 days a week and his regular carer is overseas so he has been looked after by a new carer. She tells me he is happy and no problems and doesnt do this at all with her. I am so confused

nothing to worry, children when they are small try to repeat their action until they learn new stuff. you can take him for walks, allow him to play with other children in the play area. he will be fine, there are no medication for this. divert his attention when starts to do
