My DS has just turned 16 months. My DD was an early talker, by 16 Months was very talkative.
My DS says Mama (not dada), can roar when he sees a dinosaur, baa when he sees a sheep. He babbles a lot and babbles as if he's trying to say something to me but it makes no sense.
HV said he's behind on his speech. Other mothers I know say that there's something wrong with him because he can't yet speak e.g autism
I've only ever had experience with my DD who was very vocal. I'm extremely upset about these comments and don't know what to do. Do I need to start taking him to speech therapy? How do I go about it?!
