So, here's a question...


MyLuvBugs wrote: Do you consider your 1 year old child an infant still or a toddler?

For me, it depends on the day. smile.gif So far today....toddler. But yesterday....MAJOR infant. lol smile.gif

mckayleesmom replied: I say Toddler...but Russell is still very baby like compared to alot of toddlers.

KingMom replied: I say Toddler.

mysweetpeasWil&Wes replied: Definitely toddler!

3xsthefun replied: Toddler.

mckayleesmom replied: Here is how I look at it....Once they are walking...they are toddlers because they get to toddle around rolling_smile.gif ...If they are not walking yet...they are still babies.... wub.gif

Walking+ Getting into everything='s Toddler laugh.gif

AlexsPajamaMama replied:
I agree
Toddling around is toddler!

C&K*s Mommie replied: I do not have a one year old anymore, but I agree that it depends on what they are doing. I do not so much call them babies anymore once they are 1, but I really do not refer to them as toddlers so much (most of the time) unless they are walking and such.

1lilpeanut2love replied: Even though Kaylee has been walking since she was 9-months, I consider her a baby. I don't even think of her as an infant anymore. She is in to everything and goes all over the place. I really miss her being an infant though. Where has the time went!! bawling.gif bawling.gif smile.gif

Nathansmom replied: Toddler for sure here!

kayla's mama replied: As much as I hate to admit it.....toddler bawling.gif

I realized this last Sun at church. We tried taking her to the nursery and they no she's a toddler ohmy.gif bawling.gif

MamaJAM replied: To me they are --

Newborn for the fist 6 weeks.
Infant from 6 weeks until walking.
Toddler from walking (be that 10 months or 15) until age 3.5.
Age 3.5-5 Preschooler.

Edward's Mommy replied: Edward is still 8 months old but I have a feeling that when he's a year old, I'll still see him as a baby.

coasterqueen replied: Oh I consider Megan to be very much a baby or at least compared to what her sister was at a year old. Kylie was walking and talking pretty clearly and much more vocal. Megan still crawls, not even interested in walking and barely babbling. She's also a LOT tinier than her sissy was too. wub.gif

lesliesmom replied:
This is my reasoning as well!!!

My2Beauties replied: Hanna was walking at 10 months, it was about that time that I started referring to her as a toddler, but when I think about the word toddler I see more 2-3 year olds, so really I have no idea blink.gif

kimberley replied: baby because i have a 10yo to compare her to. happy.gif

na81 replied: I say after they start walking- toddler! My daughter is 16 months old-sometimes it seems hard to believe! She will always be my little "baby" though! Time goes by so fast!!

MyLuvBugs replied:
Oh gosh! If that's the case, Lorelei's been a toddler since she was 8 months old!! ohmy.gif laugh.gif

ilovemybaby replied: Toddler.

I can't put Abby in those stretch n grows anymore (the ones with the feet). They just don't look right LOL She doesn't look like a baby anymore sad.gif

Brias3 replied: At the time of them being one, I usually considered them a toddler.
