| Hi, Please ask if any part of my post is ambiguous (I'm not a native english speaker). - Not leaving the baby alone especially when she cries, is simply one of the most important things.
The first year is the time of developing the confidence.
I recommend this:

Without limits the child would not feel safe, and often tends to put control in her own hands,
which is not her responsibility at that age. Also see: "fear of losing control".
IMHO its especially hard if you've done right all the 1st year. :) - Playing with her is a lot more important than giving toys. - Tantrum is not a problem, even if it lasts for 30-40 minutes.
It is an emotional expression, saying something like "Help, I lost the attachment to you!"
A good limit for example: She must not hurt anybody, but expressing emotions is allowed. - Screen, phone, tablet, Youtube, etc. is forbidden until 5 years, later time-limited (if inevitable).
I know that a lot of people are opposed. Yes, being a parent is challenging. |
