Ds had his 2 yr development check today. All in all they were very pleased as he did most things he was asked very well.
They asked if i had any concerns and i said i was slightly concerned about his speech> They said he should know 50-60 seperate words by now, but doesn't and some of the ones he does know are unrecognisable to anyone other than me.
They have said that they will refer him for a speech assesment (also a hearing test just to check), but i was wondering what they will do with a child of that age.
Dd had one at age 4 and she was asked to point to things and then name them etc, but Ds wouldn't be able to do this and if asked to say a particular word he wouldn't (even if he could).
Anyone elses child had their speech assessed at this age ???
