my daughter will turn 2 in the beginning of November and I'm starting to become concerned. She walked at 10 months runs climbs etc, gives kisses blows kisses, understands pretty much everything I say like lets go brush teeth or please pass me your book/toy/pajamas etc but her speech itself is very limited. She says mumma daddy no yeah hiya and hello and there. That's about it must mostly she will take my hand to whatever she wants and needs to communicate. I read to her everyday and we have flash cards. She can do all of the animal noises and has memorised all of her flash cards she even recognises to ring flash card as the ring on my finger. I try to encourage her to speak and she will try to copy but when she gets it wrong she gets very upset and refuses to try again. I wasn't concerned but now every one keeps telling me I should be as they have younger children who speak more then she does. Can anyone help? Thanks
