I know we shouldn't compare but I've just seen my friends kid on FB who were born days apart and he just said every single planet very clearly.
My son has just been saying the same made up phrase for the past year which after hearing it over and over and over, its honestly driving me crazy. After seeing that video of my friends child.... I feel like I've completely failed him. But it's not like I try.
Even if I get him to say a word.... They all sound for the same. He will pronounce every word with a D.... And if its two syllables then all the words sound like Dehdeee. Doggy = Dehdeee. TV = Dehdeee. Grandad = dehdeh. Nana = dadarrr. I've tried getting him to look at my lips.... And pronounce different letters individually like P, B, R..... And they all come out D.
Hearing seems to be fine. Understanding is there and I can pretty much ask him to do most things.
He was about to go to nursury where I was hoping he would to start speaking more but now with the coronavirus it looks like he won't be going for another 3 - 6 months. Is there anything I can be doing... I feel like he's falling behind.
