I am unsure what to do for the best. DD is 2.9 and although she is talking, her pronunciation is not always clear ( often dropping Start or end of words) and sometimes I'm not sure what she's saying. She uses individual words, puts some sentences together, can count to 6 and knows most colours. But when she's with her friends I realise how she is less clear. She isn't very good with names, for example, and doesn't say her own name. Her comprehension is excellent. She naturally signs when she can't get the words out. We do lots of reading, singing etc and she does 2 days at nursery. I have asked them before if I should be worried but they seem to think not.
I am encouraged by the fact that she's not afraid to chatter & we here new words ( or attempts at words!) most days. The other night I was urging her to go to sleep as I had work the next day...the next morning she was saying 'mummy's got work to do!'....it wasn't perfectly clear but a good effort!!
So, when, if at all, do I decide it's not all just going to come together of it's own accord?
