Hi i am frustrated as my DD age 2 still only has 1 or 2 words and i am not sure what to do next. there is also a problem with her understanding as she understands very little that i say (she knows 'kiss goodnight' or 'no' but wouldnt understand if i said we are going to see daddy or going to park or can you get your shoes or what cartoon do you want to watch, do you want juice etc)
She has been referred for a ruth griffiths assesment, and speech and language therapy but the waiting list is 6 months and I want to be helping her now.
I was interested to read some posts regarding using sign language as i really want her to realise that she can communicate her needs to me and i have also read that it can help with speech.
Does anybody have any advise on where/how to start please?
