my son is 15mths old, and he fusses and gets difficult to handle anytime he wants something and anytime he gets frustrated. it makes it hard to differentiate between when he wants something and when he's just upset over something. He goes limp and won't stand up when he's upset and screams or cries alot. he'll even cry at you when you tell him not to do something. I can't tell when he wants a drink or snack or if he's just tired and cranky anymore. how do you deal with a baby who's turning into a toddler faster than you can keep up with? It drives me crazy, because I know he's overdoing it, because he used to ask for baba's and would show obvious behaviour when he was ready for nap...e.g. say bedbed or grab his favourite stuffy and bring it to me and cuddle on my lap. He seems to have decided that even the smallest thing is worthy of a temper tantrum. I used to know when it was just that, because he'd freak and sprawl on the floor without getting up..but now he does that for everything
