Dd2 turned 2yo last month. I'm a little concerned about her speech and wondered if I should contact out HV, or if this is normal and not to worry.
For example, if she tries to tell me 'Mummy, the dog barked but now it has gone', it would come out as 'Mah, doh, bar, gone.' Sometimes, if words won't come to her (might be when she's wanting something immediately from the fridge), I'll get a point and 'uh uh! uh!' still.
She repeats things a lot. I might get 'mah, doh, bar' for what feels like 20 mins. Or 'bebe, cah, mil' (Mummy, the baby cried. She needs milk!)
She seems to understand everything we say to her, judging from her responses.
I seem to remember dd1 being clearer with her vocabulary at this age, but can't exactly remember.
TIA
