My DS is 17 months old. I love him more than anything but all I have ever done since the moment I found out I was pregnant is worry. I mean to the point I cry and cry and cry thinking something is always wrong.
I'm worried about him at the moment because he's still not walking! He walks along just holding my finger but won't let go! I'm scared something is wrong although I come from a family of late walkers (15 - 19 months).
Im a stay at home mum so I'm wiht him all day and even though I've heard him say around 20 words (which I think is ok for his age) he doesn't say them regularly i.e. maybe only 4 or 5 of them in one day. But my biggest concern and what I cry about constantly is that most of the day he is silent, he won't talk to me, won't babble, won't play toys and just cries, screams and whines. But as soon as his dad comes on from work he chats away! But only to me! He ignores his daddy or will hit him!
I really need some advice I feel I'm at breaking point. I cry a lot and I broke down in front of my DS yesterday I felt so bad and he came and gave me a cuddle!
I just wish he would chat away to me.
