My 21 month old boy started walking at 15 months, he has a dummy but only during bed time. He is amazing and such a happy boy. I have a few concerns re his speech, and worried about it.
He will only say few words, here is a list, can someone tell me this is normal :
- Says all animal sounds when you say the animal name to him
- counts from 1 to 10
- Says Mummy, Daddy , Mo Mo ( monkey )
- says book
- says yeah / no and knows which concept to use both words in
- says hiya and bye
- shows a lot of emotion when hugging , says 'ahhhhhh'
- gives kisses and blows kisses
- says bubbles.
That is a complete list, I mean I assumed he would be saying more things by now, he goes to Nursery full time and is very sociable and interactive and confident, and when I am with him I am always talking to him and reading books and pointing out colors and words and objects. But I would think a solid 10 words for him at the moment. He understands most instructions ; come here, get your shoes, sit down, stand up, turn around, sing, dance, wash hands, clean teeth, take shoes off, take socks off, say thank you, stop,.
I guess I am comparing him to other children of his age at Nursery who can say a lot more.
Thank you xx
