My ds only has 5 clearish words, I've just read he should have 50!
He can say ow, no, yeah, juice (still more of a sound) and a hello sound.
He has a bedtime story every night, we attempt to read books during the day but he's not too interested. We're always chatting with him and asking him things but I think we've fallen in to the trap of understanding his little ways of communication too much so he doesn't have a big need to talk.
He understands everything we say and follows instructions. I think he's just not bothered about talking, he's quite happy being quiet.
So should I be worried? What else can we do to encourage him?
