Detailed explanation-1: -Regression during toilet training-a child’s sudden neglect of potty practices, constant “puddling” or other accidents, or desire to return to diapers-can be baffling and upsetting to parents who believe they have nearly completed the process.
Detailed explanation-2: -It is not uncommon for the arrival of a new sibling to trigger a sleep regression. This is when your child who might have been a good sleeper, suddenly starts resisting bedtime, demanding a particular parent (usually mum) or waking in the night.
Detailed explanation-3: -Kids regressing-moving backwards in their development-is a common phenomenon. It is usually in reaction to a stressor: a move, a new baby in the family, a change in schools or caregivers, or…a global pandemic, to name a few. Any change or disruption in children’s daily routines is stressful.
Detailed explanation-4: -Regression can vary, but in general, it is acting in a younger or needier way. You may see more temper tantrums, difficulty with sleeping or eating or reverting to more immature ways of talking. If a child has achieved something like getting dressed by herself, you may see a loss of some of those skills.
