ds2 is nearly 20 months old and says the following:
bye bye
dada (but to Daddy he says just da)
bubu for bubble
ga for garden
boo for book
He points at everything and says "deh" or "dah"
He understands everything I say to him and can make himself understood through grunting and pointing.
ds1 is 3 and his speech has always been very advanced for his age. When he was 2 he had the speech of a 3 year old. ds1 is 20 months and probably has the speech of a one year old (if that).
My Mother says I should now get him some speech therapy. Part of me thinks he will get there in his own time, but I am a little worried. What do you think? Does he have a problem?
