DS can only say
"Da-da", directed at DH, and
"Na-na" which means dinner/milk/any kind of food!!
Apart from that he only does "ba-ba-ba-ba"!
He very rarely uses other sounds, Ma-ma for eg. but not towards me. He tends to just grunt.
Is this 'normal'? Only I have just looked at something which suggests that he should be saying up to 7 words, but understanding up 20! He doesn't tend to point to things that he wants either, apart from his bottle and then he doesn't point, just arches his back in the general direction!
I am wondering whether it has anything to do with a tongue-tie? The HV says he could have a slight tie, but he wouldn't open his mouth properly for her to check!!
Am I worrying for nothing? I know I probably am!
