Hi all,
I'm a first time mum and worrying myself sick for my 20 mo DD.
She had 30 words till 3 weeks ago.
In the last 3 weeks she gradually stopped using her words as often as she used to. For ex, she used to spontaneously say "goodbye" and wave every time someone left but now she won't do it even when prompted.
She would say repeatedly "wawa" to request water or "yoyou" for yoghurt. Then she dropped one syllable and would say "wa" or "you".
Now tho, she doesn't pipe a word apart from “mama” and “papa”, she will just point and whine.
At first I thought it was just a little phase but 3 weeks in, I’m really freaking out now.
In the meantime, she babbles a lot but won't repeat a single word or point to body parts. She could point to her nose, mouth and belly but now she ignores me when I ask her to.
Is this even remotely normal?
