Hello!
My son, who is my second seems to not be saying anything other than mama & baba. When he wants something he’ll bring it to me/ put it in my hands and either say mmmmmama or if he doesn’t get his way will cry. So he’s able to communicate to me what he wants.
However when I ask him for something he doesn’t seem to follow my instruction and doesn’t like to sit still for me to be able to teach him anything - I’m not sure if he doesn’t understand me or is ignoring me (which I notice he does with his name). He knows when I’m ‘telling him off’ from his body language and his facial experiences. He also doesn’t seem to sit still, he’s constantly on the move, climbing running etc unless it’s TV time or food time (even then sometimes I have to feed him on the go). He also isn’t a great sleeper.
All other milestones he’s smashed and surpassed.
So is there something for me to be worried about? How can I help him (given that he won’t sit still for me to go through a book pointing at flowers and the sun). He’s not interested in speaking or using words as much as I try.
He does babble though!
Help please!
