Extended Edition of International Bestseller Released, Helps Parents Weather Emotional Storms
Research shows that the so-called “terrible twos” don’t need to exist when it comes to child development.  In fact, the behavior often associated with this stage – tantrums, moodiness, nagging and an affinity for the word “no” – begins shortly after the first birthday.

Pay attention to the signals your baby is giving you!

If you want to be really prepared for the "regressions," I'd say borrow or buy the Wonder Weeks book, read it, and pay attention to the signals your baby is giving you. Once you know what's going on it becomes fascinating and annoying instead of worrisome and torturous.-- AskMoxie.org
