Season 2 Episode #10: Childhood Regressions: What’s Normal, What’s Not, & When to Worry
Season 2 Episode 10
Your child was sleeping through, eating like a champ, chatting away... and now it feels like everything’s gone backwards. Welcome to the messy middle of childhood development: regression.
In this episode, we unpack the why behind regressions in language, sleep, feeding and play. We explore what’s developmentally typical, what’s often triggered by stress, change or growth, and what might be a red flag worth following up.
We’ll share real-life examples, explain why some regressions are actually a sign of progress, and offer reassurance for when things feel chaotic. Plus, we’ll give you practical ways to support your child (and yourself) through the wobbles – without panic or pressure.
Because going backwards isn’t always a bad thing. Sometimes it’s just a child’s nervous system asking for a little extra safety on the way forward.
