Our daughter did the same thing, we just ignored the fact she did it and tried to occupy her doing something else and eventually she grew out of it

yes babysitting happened too me, I screamed back, she laughed and I felt free. Good to let out expressions in right time and place, the amazement on bub’s face was great to see. Just a thought try it and see.! Big learning time at this age trying on different styles is just another stage. You say that then she is OK so feel do not worry it can be upsetting I agree

Going through this now – ear piercing screams! What worked?

that’s cute! she is trying to play and get your attention!

hopefully she will just grow out of it and it is harmless, especially if she just smiles afterwards. if she wasn’t smiling after I would suggest maybe she gets earaches or something, but hopefully it’s just a phase of finding her voice and it will stop soon.

If say it is likely a phase. Keep an eye on it though and seek clarification if you need via MCHN.

She’ll grow out of it. It’s just a new trick she’s learnt.

I think it sounds like baby is just finding her voice! Pretty normal, it will pass!

there are some good comments here

might just need to let her for awhile or try something else like when she does it see if she can sing or something just so shes not screaming

I agree that she is experimenting with her voice as she is happy afterwards. Introduce her to music and playing with sounds, perhaps singing songs to her,

Thanks for sharing your story 🙂

i hope you found some answers

My son did this, they are just experimenting with their voices she should move on to something else soon!

I think she is just exploring and being playful…

Some good advice below. Hope she grows out of it for you.

I think this is one of those things that will usually stop on their own (eventually)

how did you go in the end?

How much fun is your little one having, now that she’s finally found her voice! My little man use to do the same thing, at around the same age. It’s just a phase, and the funniest thing I remember is: the more I reacted to the screeching, the more he did it – it was all part of this new fun game. Oh, yeah, he use to squeal whilst pulling at my hair too. Enjoy the squealing – I’m sure your princess is! Good luck!

Possibly just learning to make new sounds and should grow out of it. (around 4) I don’t think it is anything to worry about but I also don’t think at that age there is much you can do except say no and say that it hurts mummys ears.
