Disagreements with toddler!

We are trying to raise an assertive child. However, that means that the toddlers an opinion about everything he uses, inclusing nappies! For instance, we get 2 different designs in the diaper pack. He would readily wear the one with elephants on it, but throws a big fit when he has to wear the fox one! Same thing when it comes to clothes, socks (he chooses 2 different ones). I don't want to scold him, as it is quite trivial. He is a really well-behaved child otherwise. How to best deal with this is a question. Appreciate your inputs!

For things like the designs on diapers, I think you could just explain why there's different designs and that they all serve the same purpose! They are a lot smarter and intuitive than we think, so you could try explaining that they are all diapers and serve the same purpose - you may not like the design on it but sometimes, in life, we aren't given the privilege/option to choose. Let him choose something else like the design of the pants that he wears with the fox diapers, making it a "unique/special" one instead of the regular elephant :) Alternatively, just get diapers without special designs! As for clothes, I don't think there's an issue because nobody ever says that clothes/socks have to match! If he's happy wearing striped on one leg and red on another - so be it :) I see it as a way of being creative than sticking to the norm, small things like that which may make the difference between raising a child that sticks to what society does, and one that does what he loves :)

Toddler has developed fears

My 2 yo has suddenly developed a fear for strange noises. He thinks it is a mouse, and rushes to close the door leading to a passage in our flat. How to get rid of this fear? We never talk of any monsters, nor try to intimidate him with anything. He is not even scolded at, at home or daycare. Thanks for the help.

There are nightmares as well...

My son hates pacifiers. So when he is super excited and does not know what to do, I play this song. It is super-soothing. What do you guys do? https://youtu.be/lUNrtdQUlLs

Sweets keeps him quiet a while.

I want to take ~100 oz fbm to India for a trip with my baby. Any tips?

Have you check with the airlines of bringing FBM on flight? You would need to calculate the journey of flight and the duration to travel to the airport. Secondly, you would need to get a styrofoam box and get LOTS OF dry ice. Frozen ice pack. Pack it nice and tight. Seal it tight. Probably you need to label it nice and clear on what does it contains in case it needs to be checked by the customs. I hope this helps!

Any baby manual to read before the kiddo arrives? Do's and don'ts, troubleshooting, answers to common questions? Thanks!

Manual? Wow! No specific manual I would say. Do lots of read up either online or you can actually take the opportunity to get to the library, get some aircon in this super hot weather and read in the comfort. There are so much more choices of books available in the library. Check out the parenting section.
