My 2.5yr ds started stammering last saturday - v strange, he prafctically 'woke up with a stammer', of course he's done typical 2 year old stutter lots, as they do learning words/thinking, but this is real stammering 'Me me Me me Mer Mer Mer Mu Mu Mu Mummy' and getting frustrated that he can't say 'it' and then managing to finally get it out, or just choosing to say something completely different...It only the begining of sentences he stammers...and before sat he had no trouble with getting words out, not a chatterbox, but is good at vocab etc.. I found myself crying over breakfast as he got so frustrated. he is going through a arguing black is white phase (with me!) anyway. I just want to know if there's anything I can do/not do or if it is just a little phase....(I'm trying not to 'notice' it and helping him with a question which he can nod to if I know what he's going to be saying)
