behavior problems...?

My 9 month old son sticks his arms out straight in front of him and clinches his fists when he gets mad and goes NA NA or MA MA or DA DA. He does this mostly when we are feeding him in between bites lol or if he sees us eating and he isnt getting any..

My SIL said the pedi told her that was indicative of behavior problems??! Does anyone know if this is true or had an experience with this lol?? Otherwise he is a very happy baby and hardly ever cries...

You cant tell at the age of 9 months....dont worry about anything.
Babies do carry a lot of frustration tho, they dont know how to communicate with us properly, so they hit, bite scream throw things, its all normal. dont worry about what other say.

  No, its not an indication of behavior problems.

Lol! My son has always liked to feel things.. ever since he was really young he would reach his hand out and rub you or his hair or his blanket. I think it comforts him. Now he likes to hit us! I don't think he really knows he is actually hitting us but he gets excited and throws his arms and smacks us in the face and chest LOL i tell him no but its hard not to laugh because its funny!!

Thanks guys. I figured it was too young to tell anyway, I just got worried and if he does have behavior problmes oh well  ) We will cross that bridge when we come to it!
