Anyone else get so (internally) annoyed with this whole climbing all over you phase? 22 months and I dread the days I have to stay home all day and don’t get to drop her off at daycare and go to work because she is SO MUCH.

I’ll be lounging on our nugget couch (so super low) and she will come over, straddle me and then start bouncing. Not a fun feeling.

Omg yes. My 3 year old still does it, but the difference is that he’s much bigger and it hurts. I usually ask him to stop, and if he doesn’t, I get up for a while.

35 weeks pregnant with a 20 month old and a just turned 3 year old who just always want to be on my lap. I’m trying to enjoy it and soak up the snuggles cuz I know one day they won’t want/need their momma as much, but I seriously just need some personal space sometimes! I wish they’d climb on dad as much as they want to climb on me so that I could catch a break!

Never knew how painful it is to have someone stand on your breasts

I think everyone gets annoyed with it sometimes. I just now got irritated with my kid because he doesn't want to eat dinner after basically begging for it.🤷

When he's being very "touchy" I will redirect him. We'll go play with a toy together, or go outside to play. I have him help me with chores sometimes. Or we go on a ride-on toy.

Everyone tells you to enjoy their littleness as much as you can....but there's only so much I can take, and sometimes it is a little annoying!

it be weird if you didn’t. im weird tho, i think it’s adorable.

I want to think it's normal because I'm the same way. Started daycare at 13 months since Covid had us working from home for a bit and I looked forward to that first day of daycare so I could actually get work done.

Yeeeeeeeeees. I just wanna sit and drink my coffee or avoid cleaning up whatever mess she made since the last time I cleaned 10 min ago. And, mine loves to headbutt. She thinks it's a game. I'm not a touch person to begin with. When my husband gets home from work, sometimes I just book it out of the living room yelling "Your baby!" 🤣

My son cannot sit with me anymore and just enjoy being with me. He HAS to be suckling, not even full breastfeeding, just suckling like I'm a pacifier. It irritates me to no end. For one, it hurts and leaves my skin dry and cracked. He used to sit and snuggle in my lap, but now he can't sit with me unless he's suckling. Many meltdowns have occured onboth my end and his end

I popped on here thinking, “I need to vent about how f***ing clingy and grouchy and not-good-at-independent play my 21-monther is.” Dad just took her for a walk to give me a break (5:15 wakeups are apparently the new norm now too?) I’m not sure what is with this phase but man it is TRYING. So all over the place and in an odd spot of growth. Lots of BIG feelings. Not a lot of ways to deal with said feelings. Limited vocabulary. Ugh. With you.

Edit for typo.
