My DD1 is 23 months old and has yet to speak. She has pronounced though Im not sure if she has said it deliberately, Muma and Dada a few times but does not do this consistently.
Comprehension wise, she can understand what we are saying to her as when we go through books and ask her to point out things she will. Bee, Butterfly, Cow, House, Clock, Teddy etc etc. She can follow instructions and is an affectionate child. She does babble a range of sounds.
I know we aren't supposed to compare but her peer group are using sentences and have a growing vocab. She has said NOTHING.
She does point and wave but not consistently.
I think Ive done everything I can, i read to her all the time, try and talk and describe things to her a lot. Talk her through what we are doing. Her nursery don't seem that bothered about it.
I've been referred to the local integrated therapies service and they have agreed to see her but when I rang up for an appointment the woman i spoke to said 'Oh she's still tiny'.
I feel like DD has missed a major milestone and nobody really cares too much.
