Hi I've posted a while ago and wanted to wait a bit longer to see how they've developed but I still have a few worried and wanted to get some advice.
I have 20 month old twins. Born at 33 weeks so 7 weeks early. Adjusted age just over 18 months.
My DD is my main concern. She isn't talking but babbles a lot and does say Dada and Mama. She doesn't point or bring things to me except a book when she wants me to read it to her. She doesn't always answer to her name but is getting so much better. I'd say she answers more than half the time on balance. She doesn't seem bothered by other children. She is very affectionate. Very good fine and gross motor skills. She understands a few instructions and acts accordingly.
My DS doesn't point but will take my hand and bring me to things he wants. He also bring me toys and things. He says Mama Dada and Peppa and also tries to say Dinosaur. He babbles lots. He's very socialable. Good fine and gross motor skills. Understands a lot of instructions.
I have made an appointment at the GP for my DD in a couple of weeks time and they've just started going to nursery 2 mornings a week.
So my questions are. Should I be worried? About DD or DS or both?
