i have been thinking of asking this for days and if i should or not .... so here goes

i am wondering if anyone else's child does this,  when charlie is really excited or cranky he will sit there and hit or smack his head and will keep doing it until someone stops him,  please i have tried everything, i have asked the doctors about it and they just keep telling me that its just a phase but I'm not so sure...

we do ignore it but we have to stop him when is head goes read from doing it so much, its as though he can't stop himself from doing it, he even does it when no one is with him or looking,  we've never laughed at it or made it into a game, when he first did it i was shocked at it and stoped him from doing it and now when he does it i try to tell him that it isn't a good thing and that he will really hurt himself.... 

its not so much an attention thing when he wants that he just keeps saying mum mum mum or dad until we answer him, like that lollie pop add that was going around a few years ago.

please help i don't know how to stop it or is it something else??

Know a little? Give an answer Know a lot? Write some advice
