When do babies start to test the boundries
Ava is 10and a half months old and yesterday and today she has done everything to go against what I'm saying :/ she knows the tv stand she must stay away from if I say Ava she looks back smiles and crawls off so I say good girl for listening today she tried climbing it so I said Ava she looked back and carried on so I went over pulled her off and said Ava no mus not climb you could hurt yourself her response was to slap me and when I told her sternly "no" for hitting she just laughed in my face!
Anyone with advice! My nephew hits Ava quite a lot he gets told off straight away but my sister cuddles him after I don't want Ava to think it will be rewarded with a cuddle but I don't know how to deal with it either as she's my first! X
