dd (18 months) won't stop shouting..

[Raahh]

she is perfectly healthy, happy, etc, but really really LOUD. She shouts all the time (not in a crying way, just noise), and it gets so bad i spend all my time apologising for her, which DH gets really annoyed about because after all she is just a baby.

It is really stressful, and even my sister (a nanny for 15 years ) can no longer cope with her, so she is in a nursery for the 3 days i work. I love her to bits, but dread going ANYWHERE, meals out are a nightmare., and ina few weeks we are going on holiday- it's afour hour flight and i am dreading it.

A doctor has suggested it may be a problem with her ears ,but we have yet to get her checked.

Any advice (apologies if this has copped up before, and that this is so long).

you should start whispering and get help from all around her to whisper and she will copt this and normal speach can follow

thanks, it gets really upsetting when we are out glaring at her cos of the noise.She isn't naughty, just vocal!
