My son will be 2 in june.
He says very little.
He can communicate his needs fine the majority of the time
He points at this he wants and nods/shakes his head, he uses pitch and tone of voice to communicate also.
He can get things when i ask him to and point to objects i say
He doesnt know his colours or shapes
He says maybe 10/15 words regular 'mam, dada, yeah, more, there, all gone, eye, woofwoof, choo choo, dirty, out, ball, mar mar (grandma), hiya
Tho only few of these words are pronounced well.
He cannot copy what i say to him. I break the words down and he occasionally can say the first letter sound but cant link two letter sounds together to form a word
Some words he has said once or twice weeks, even months, ago and not said since.
He tends to make noise to get what he wants rather than attempt to say words.
Should i be concerned!?
Hes learnt maybe 2 words in the last 6/8 weeks but probably stopped using others
I dont feel like hes learning any milestones in any other developmental field. Physically hes running twisting and jumping and has been for a while. Emotionally hes where he should be and is pretty independent from me. He sleeps and eats great and interacts with others no problem.
Any help/advice/experiences
Thanks
