Ds is just at that stage where he is saying new words every day.
He started with Mama and Dada.
Then essentials like 'poo' and 'up' and 'no' and 'pussycat'.
I've not counted but he must now say between 30 - 50 words, and more every day.
So why no word for his sister?
He adores her. He plays with her all the time. He follows her around like a little puppy. They are together nearly all the time.
I'm not surprised that he doesn't say her actual name because I suppose it's quite a hard one to say, and we tend to call her lots of different nicknames anyway.
But surely he should have some sound or word for her?
He says 'Dora' ffs! And 'Blue Bear'! But not 'sis'.
Why?

I am bemused by ds not saying his sister's name or even having a word for her
