is my boy normal? lol

[tootsy]

i dont know how else to say it. hes just turned 3, hes a normal kid, has his quiet moments but i think hes changing and i want to know if its a normal phase in a 3yr old boy...

hes turned into a bull-frog! hes crazy! he runs around and bangs his trucks and push along toys into doors and walls, hes yelling more than ever, he constantly wants us to chase him, he fights and laughs his guts out when we try dress him!!! its driving me bonkers!

his eating or drinking isnt being spiked lol

is this normal? are all boys this way at some stage? around this age? i feel like he is out of contro lat times, like he has ADD.

really this is a serious Question, im worried hes changed in the last 2 weeks. lol

Seriously i think they are all the same. I dreaded terrible 2s after everyone warned me, but my god give me 2 year olds anydays, its the terrible 3's and 4's you need to prepare for!!

I think around 3 or 4 boys get the first real release of testosterone into their systems and can appear to be more active and aggressive. Sounds normal to me :D

[tootsy]

bootiful- i agree with you! i have always said that aswel:yes:

justmum- i have read this is 'raising boys' book about the serge of testosterone but i wasnt quiet sure! as a female im trying so hard to understand him as a little man, i am:)
its actualy quiet funny when hes so 'boyish' but it does drive me loopy at the end of the day, when i want him to relax, he wont :rolleyes:

[funnyfarm]

:yes: Sounds normal to me. (and i have 2 girls :D)

[Chunkydunks]

Ahhh enjoy. Mines 4 and still very full on. Although tonight he's being an :angel:. he behaves so well for me when he knows I'm stressed out like this.

[JellybeanLOVER]

Gosh.. this sounds like my DS and he is only almost 2.. whats going to happen when he is 3 :eek:

[lovebeingmummy]

:eek:My boy is about to turn 3:eek:

[Bubs'n'Roses]

Mines a girl but... the 3 and 4's are worse? Oh god these 2's have been testing!

My mum keeps telling me I'm getting what I deserve for all the hell I gave her... lol.


Oh no. That does not bode well for me. Lol.

[tootsy]

i really believe 3's are worse. what iv found is at 2, my boy was just 'exploring' everything, exploring his limits, in every way he was always pushing his luck but he was still a baby at the end of the day:)
also the whole talking thing was good, but now at 3 he can talk back!, wich makes 3's wrose for me!.

hes also faster, louder, more daring, its harder for me to grab him and 'put' him in the car when hes having a tantrum, especially since im pregnant..... so to me definatly 3's have been a big deal for me. oh im making him sound so bad, id say hes loud and naughty say 1 good solid hour of a day, on a bad day it can be a couple hours....... by the time its over im so :sleeping:

[MissSparkle]

lol ur boy is totally normal. DS1 is exactly the same! Recently he's been very naughty (hiting DS2, spiting out food, yelling, demanding things etc). I definately think the "terrible 2's" were a breeze compared to the Horendous 3's! Im hoping it passes soon....I agree with u tootsy, by the end of the day Im :sleeping:
